Senegal could well find England on the field in a remake of their clash in the 2022 World Cup. Indeed, the English Football Federation has proposed a friendly match against the Senegal Lions.
Indeed, the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) has confirmed that it has received a proposal from the English Federation concerning a friendly match between the Senegal Lions and the Three Lions. This match would be scheduled for June 10, 2025 and would be held at the City Ground in Nottingham, a 30,600 capacity stadium known for hosting Nottingham Forest matches. The announcement was confirmed by the newspaper The Daily.
Although the FSF confirmed having received this request, the source specified that the Senegalese body was currently studying this proposal. “Indeed, we received the request. We are currently studying it,” said a source within the federation, without going into details regarding the final decision.
If this match were to materialize, it would be a particularly significant moment for both teams. Indeed, the meeting would be reminiscent of that of December 4, 2022, during the round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where England won convincingly 3-0 against Senegal. This new confrontation would offer the Lions the opportunity to take their revenge and optimally prepare for the rest of the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, the first major challenge for Senegal will be a perilous trip to Sudan next March.
