Qualifications CAN 2027 : Assane Diao incertain pour la fenêtre de novembre ?
With less than a month to go before Senegal's next matches, Assane Diao's participation in the two games against Sudan is in doubt. Suffering from a hamstring injury, the Comé striker is expected to miss approximately three weeks of competition, raising the threat of him being ruled out of the upcoming international window.
Senegal may have to do without Assane Diao in November. Forced off early during the Champions League match against Feyenoord Rotterdam, the young Senegalese winger underwent medical tests which revealed a hamstring injury. His club, Come, announced on Saturday, October 17, that he will be sidelined for an estimated three weeks.
The Senegalese international had made a promising start to the match, finding the back of the net against the Dutch side. However, his European evening was cut short, as he was forced to leave the field in the 23rd minute.
If the recovery timeframe communicated by the Italian club is met, Assane Diao could return to the pitch before the next international break. However, his participation with the Lions remains uncertain, given the schedule and the need for him to fully recover his fitness after this injury.
Patrick Vieira's men are due to face Sudan on November 11 and 15, on the occasion of the third and fourth days of the qualifiers for the Africa Cup of Nations (CAN) 2027. Two important dates for the Senegalese national team in its quest for qualification.
The Lions' staff will therefore closely monitor the young striker's health. His ability to return to competition within the announced timeframe will be crucial in determining whether he will be included in the squad in November. In the meantime, the risk of him missing the two matches against Sudan remains very real.
