Patrick Vieira appointed head coach of Senegal national team
The Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) has officially appointed Patrick Vieira as the new head coach of the Senegal men’s national team. The 50-year-old, who was born in Dakar, succeeds Pape Thiaw, who was dismissed following the team’s exit in the round of 32 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Vieira, a former France international and 1998 World Cup winner, brings extensive managerial experience from clubs including New York City FC, Nice, Crystal Palace, Strasbourg, and Genoa. This appointment marks his first role in international management.
The FSF described the move as a “strategic choice” intended to align the technical staff with the nation’s sporting ambitions. Vieira’s immediate objectives include rebuilding the Teranga Lions and preparing for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
