Senegal will be making their 4th appearance at the FIFA World Cup in the 2026 edition hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Lions of Teranga made a stunning debut in 2002, reaching the quarter-finals, which remains their best-ever performance.

With a squad that combines physicality, pace, and international experience, Senegal arrive with confidence and ambition. As the tournament unfolds across North America, the Lions of Teranga will look to build on their proud World Cup history and push for another deep run.
