Senegal national team shirts with one star

The Senegalese Football Association issued a statement explaining the background to the appearance of the new shirt for the Senegalese national team with only one star, after the developments related to the African Cup of Nations title, as part of the preparations for the 2026 World Cup finals.

The Senegalese Federation explained through its official accounts that this clarification comes after a wave of reactions that followed the unveiling of the new shirts, which raised questions from the fans because they were limited to one star.

The same source added that the production process for these shirts began in August 2025, that is, before the last version of the “Alkan” was made, stressing that industrial restrictions and manufacturing schedules prevented any changes after the coronation.

The Senegalese Federation indicated that the second star, which symbolizes the new continental title, is currently in production, highlighting that it will be present on the official shirts starting next September.

The statement concluded by offering an apology to the Senegalese fans for any confusion this issue may have caused, expressing gratitude for the continued support, and praising the loyalty of the fans.
