The manager of the Teranga Lions is poised to announce on May 21 the names of the players who will participate in the upcoming tour of the United States. This announcement is highly anticipated as fans are eager to see which athletes will represent Senegal.
Malang Sarr is expected to receive his first call-up to the Senegal national team. Speculation about his potential inclusion in Pape Thiaw’s squad had been swirling since March, but he was ultimately not selected at that time.
However, the defender from Lens may find himself on the list of players named by Pape Thiaw this Thursday. According to Dsports, Malang Sarr is also among those being considered for the World Cup scheduled for this summer in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The 27-year-old, who was born in France, has experience playing for French youth teams.
In contrast, Nobel Mendy appears unlikely to receive a call-up from Pape Thiaw for this tour.
