Confederation of African Football (CAF) president Patrice Motsepe said the Confederation of African Football has a “duty” to Senegal to ensure its federation receives “all the support and encouragement it needs.”
Meanwhile, Thiaw said he hopes Sunday’s final, which kicks off at 19:00 GMT, will not be Sadio Mane’s last ever match in the tournament.
After Wednesday’s semi-final victory over Egypt, Mane, who scored the winning goal, told reporters that he would not play in the Africa Cup of Nations again.
Mane is Senegal’s all-time top scorer with 52 goals in 123 matches.
Tiao said: “I think he made his decision in a moment of tension and the country does not agree with that, and I, as coach of the national team, do not agree at all.”
He added: “His decision is no longer in his hands. There is an entire people who also stand behind him and would like to see him continue.”
“We would like to keep it as long as possible.”
Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda will host the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations – the dates of which have yet to be announced – and Al Nasr striker Mane will turn 35 in April next year.
