Pathé Ciss

Fresh off winning the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal at CAN 2025, Pathé Ciss was snubbed by his club, Rayo Vallecano. The Senegalese midfielder didn't miss the chance to take a shot at his team.

In recent hours, Pathé Ciss has ignited a major controversy in Spain after retweeting a particularly scathing message targeting Rayo Vallecano on social media. "Vaya club de mierda" ("What a shitty club"), the post read, referencing the lack of tribute following his CAN 2025 triumph. The move did not go unnoticed, drawing reactions from fans and the media alike.

A regular starter, midfielder Pathé Ciss has featured in 22 matches across all competitions, recording one goal and two assists. This retweet, seen as a direct attack on his own club, could have both sporting and disciplinary repercussions.
