« Ils sont...» : Dr Fédior contre-attaque
In an interview with L'Observateur, the national A team doctor, Dr. Fédior, responds to the president of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF), Abdoulaye Fall, who questioned his qualifications. Accused of not having the required "academic profile" because he is a gynecologist by training, he refutes these allegations, reveals the behind-the-scenes workings of the World Cup, and threatens to take the matter to court.
"Nonsense"
Dr. Fédior is outraged by the statements made by the president of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF). He points out that he has served as the Lions' chief physician for nearly ten years and that he graduated from the very first class of sports medicine doctors at the Faculty of Medicine of Cheikh Anta Diop University (UCAD), under the direction of the late Professor Fallou Cissé. Prior to football, he had extensive experience in sports medicine (cycling, handball, and basketball).
A parallel medical staff imported from France
The doctor revealed that a parallel medical staff was imposed during the World Cup: a sports doctor, his assistant, two physiotherapists "who had never worked in football before," a dietician, and a mental coach. The surprise arrival of this group disrupted the local organization, even though Dr. Fédior had initially proposed bringing in a local doctor as a backup.
Clash on the day of France-Senegal: "You're not a doctor"
Tensions reached a boiling point on the day of the France-Senegal match. Just hours before kickoff, the president of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF), Abdoulaye Fall, demanded that the French doctor be allowed on the bench, barring Dr. Fédior from being present. Dr. Fédior reports having retorted sharply:
"You're not a doctor to decide who should be on the bench or not."
Following this affront, Dr. Fedior chose to withdraw from public life.
The breakup is complete and a lawsuit is being threatened.
End of collaboration : The doctor rules out any return to the staff under these conditions: "There is no question of working with these kinds of people again. They are unworthy of the positions they hold."
Legal action : Believing that his credibility has been seriously damaged by public lies, the source speaking to the newspaper of the Future Media Group announces that a defamation lawsuit against the president of the FSF is being seriously considered: "The legal option is not out of the question [...] I cannot let this go."
