Senegal: Patrick Vieira set to call up his 12th new player already!

After Mamadou Sarr withdrew with a left calf injury sustained at Real Sociedad, Patrick Vieira is expected to call up Massiré Sylla for Senegal’s two matches against Sudan on November 12 and 16 in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
