Senegal is one of the most favorite teams in the world cup. Its participation in the prestigious competition has always made surprise. Back in 2002, the team managed to draw global attention. Senegal had to defeat France in the round of 16 of the 2002 World Cup. Despite defeating Egypt’s Mohamed Salah in the last World Cup, they did not return until 2018.
Senegal might field the greatest African squad in the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Its players are on par with the greatest from South America, Europe, and Asia. Despite the presence of strong players from nations such as England, Germany, and Italy, no one knows who will win the Africa Cup of Nations.
Aliou Cisse has spent the previous seven years assembling a fantastic Senegalese team. Qatar must maintain a safe distance from these individuals. Sadio Mane, a well-known Senegalese footballer, will accompany Aliou Cisse at the World Cup. If they are fit, Edouard Mendy and Kalidou Koulibaly will play for Chelsea.
Senegal’s deputy captain is Everton’s Idrissa Gueye. Cheikhou Kouyate has appeared in 82 Nottingham Forest games so far. He is the team’s newcomer.
