Winner of the Under-20 African Cup of Nations with Senegal, Samba Diallo finally chose to defend the colors of Guinea, we learned from sources close to the player.
According to these sources, the player has been contacted for several months by Kaba Diawara. “He has been courted by Guinea for months. It was Kaba Diawara who contacted him personally at the time at the same time as Aliou Badara Baldé. But he preferred to wait for the call from Aliou Cissé because he had trained with the Cubs”said a member of the player’s staff.
Captain of the Lion Cubs U17 with the generation of Pape Matar Sarr, Aliou Ngoye and others Aliou Badara Baldé, Samba Diallo would have made his choice after March 2024. “Unfortunately in March when Cissé cast a wide net by calling several young people without contacting him, he started to think about a new challenge. When Guinea returned, he agreed. He is now available to the Guinean selection.”
Samba Diallo, 22-year-old striker, is under contract with Dynamo Kiev until 2026 but is on loan at Hapoel Jerusalem.
