The coach of the Senegal team will publish this Thursday, November 7, the list of players summoned for the Burkina-Faso matches– Senegal and Senegal-Burundicounting for the 5th and 6th day of the CAN 2025 qualifiers. The Senegalese Football Federation, who has made the announcement this Tuesday, has introduced two changes towards this last gathering of the year. In addition to the traditional press conference now scheduled for Thursday, the national coach will explain his choices and options through the federal body’s communication media.
The Senegal team coach Pape Thiaw will publish this Thursday, November 7 at 10 a.m., the list of players called up. The Senegalese Football Federation announced yesterday, Tuesday, the list of players selected for the Senegal-Burkina Faso and Senegal-Burundi matches, counting for the 5th and 6th days of the CAN 2025 qualifiers. Contrary to what is noted since the confirmation of the coach as interim, the federal body has chosen its communication channels to explain its choices. This, instead of the traditional press conference. After obtaining its qualification for the African Cup of Nations (CAN) “Morocco 2025”, the Senegal national team now aims to seize first place in group L, currently held by Burkina Faso, his next opponent in the playoffs.
After a convincing start on the bench during the double confrontation with Malawi, won with scores of 4-0 and 0, the Lions coach once again has the opportunity to make his own mark in the Lair. If they should not deviate too much from his predecessor, he had all the latitude to stamp his style. But above all, continue this good dynamic during the group “final” against the Stallions of Burkina Faso. This crucial match will be played on November 11 at the Stade du 26 mars in Bamako. By finishing at the top of this group, Pape Thiaw’s team will be able to secure a place of choice during the final stages. In other words, appear in hat 1 during the draw for the final phase of this 35th edition. As a reminder, Senegal, already qualified for CAN 2025, will play the last two days against Burkina Faso on November 14 in Bamako then Burundi on November 19 at the Abdoulaye Wade stadium in Diamniadio. Both matches will be played at 7 p.m. GMT.
