No changes from Aliou Cisse apart from Lorient right back Formose Mendy returning from injury. Senegal and their opponents will compete in Group B alongside DR Congo, Sudan and Mauritania.
Senegal hasn’t been doing as good a job recently recruiting like Morocco and Algeria. The midfield is dying and should have gone after guys like Sofiane Diop.
Andy Diouf, Habib Diarra and Sofiane Diop are all players Aliou Cisse has approached, the first 2 chose France U21 and Diop recently joined the Moroccan setup instead.
Historically the Maghrebi teams have always been more proactive when it comes to recruiting dual nationals as well. However Senegal do have younger players from their victorious U20, U17 and local national team that could make the step up to the seniors in the future, it depends on how they pan out.
Nico Jackson back to back hat trick you heard it here first !
solid squad
