Ivory Coast: Confusion with Ismaël Doukouré, 2 other players called up by Hervé Renard

Ismaël Doukouré will not join the Ivory Coast national team for the international break, despite rumors of his call-up following Odilon Kossounou's withdrawal. Instead, Junior Diaz has been called up by the Ivorian Football Federation. Luck Zogbé also replaces the injured Guéla Doué. Hervé Renard had previously mentioned that Doukouré was close to being selected but ultimately decided to trust the defenders who participated in the World Cup.
