Twenty-two-year-old Gueye had to be withdrawn from the Senegalese national team at the last minute before the match with Guinea at the African Championships. FIFA stopped his activity for four months just before the championship.
The problem has its roots in 2020, when Gueye, as a player in second-league Le Havre, signed a preliminary contract with Watford. The French native then transferred to another agent, who advised him to withdraw from the contract. Instead, Gueye subscribed to Marseille for four years in July 2020.
