Senegal: Vieira's first list will bring a host of new faces... without Sarr or Iliman Ndiaye?

Patrick Vieira, the new coach of Senegal, will reveal his first squad this Friday for the 2027 AFCON qualifiers. Ismaïla Sarr and Iliman Ndiaye will be absent due to suspensions. Among the new faces expected are Sadibou Sané, recently transferred to AS Monaco, and Lamine Sy from AJ Auxerre, who address specific defensive needs. Nobel Mendy, now at Hull City, may also return to the national team.
