Saturday, November 19, 2022 –Lethal forward Sadio Mane will not be featuring anywhere in the FIFA World Cup 2022 starting in Qatar this Sunday November 20.
Senegalese Doctor Manuel Afonso announced on Thursday November 17 that Mane had suffered an injury that is still in its healing process.
Mane, therefore, has to undergo a surgery after the first one which he is still fighting to recover from what, therefore, may not allow him to participate in the Sunday World Cup.
“Unfortunately, today’s MRI shows us that the improvement is not as favorable as we imagined and unfortunately, we have to withdraw Sadio from the World Cup,” Dr. Manuel Afonso made the announcement.
Hitman Mane sustained the costly injury while playing for Bayern Munich against Werder Bremen during a Bundesliga fixture on November 8.
