Fouzi Lekjaa, president of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF), met Friday with newly elected Senegalese Football Federation president Abdoulaye Sow in Rabat to discuss strengthening bilateral cooperation in football development.
According to a source close to the matter, the meeting took place at the FRMF headquarters as part of Sow’s official visit to Morocco—his first since taking the helm of Senegal’s football governing body.
Lekjaa congratulated Sow on his election and expressed his best wishes for success in his new role. He highlighted the deep-rooted historical, cultural, and fraternal ties between Morocco and Senegal, particularly in the area of sports.
During the meeting, Lekjaa emphasized the importance of establishing a unique and model partnership between the two federations.
He proposed initiatives focused on knowledge exchange, technical, medical, and administrative training, as well as sharing successful strategies in academic development and infrastructure improvement. He also suggested creating a joint mechanism to outline a clear roadmap for collaboration.
Sow expressed his appreciation for Morocco’s warm reception and praised the kingdom’s continued efforts to advance African football. He reaffirmed Senegal’s readiness to work closely with the FRMF on an ambitious and robust partnership.
The meeting concluded with both sides agreeing to form a joint committee tasked with studying the details of the partnership and developing a concrete action plan for its implementation.
