The dispute with Watford

In January, OM were banned from recruiting for a year and two transfer window periods by FIFA in the Pape Gueye case, their Senegalese midfielder recruited in 2020 amid litigation with the English club Watford.

The procedure had been opened in February 2021 by Watford, with which Gueye had agreed before withdrawing and joining the French club.

The player had been suspended for four months from all official competitions, with OM as with his selection, but had immediately appealed and the CAS had suspended the sanction.

He was then at the CAN with Senegal, who won the event.

He also finished the season normally with OM.
