The Senegal national team is facing a new uncertainty with Ismail Jakobs, who has not yet received the green light from FIFA to participate in the World Cup. The Monaco player, born in Cologne to a German mother and a Senegalese father, is waiting for his change of sports nationality.

What's happening?

Ismail Jakobs had already joined the team in September for friendly matches, but the managers still hope to count on him for the World Cup.

Why is this situation problematic?

This situation is causing disorder since Jakobs had already joined the team, and the managers must now find a solution to mitigate his potential absence.

What are the consequences for the team?

Moussa Ndiaye, from Anderlecht, 20 years old, numerically replaces Sadio Mané, who is out due to a knee operation. This will provide a backup to Fodé Ballo-Touré, who will be the starter.
