SENEGAL WILL BE without star striker Sadio Mané when they travel to the Aviva Stadium for next week’s end-of-season friendly against the Republic of Ireland.
The former Liverpool star, now plying his trade with Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, is the most notable omission from Pape Thiaw’s 26-man squad.

Thiaw described Mané’s absence as a “personal decision”.
Senegal’s squad for their trip to Dublin on 6 June and to play England in Nottingham Forest’s City Ground on 10 June contains a host of familiar Premier League talent including Everton duo Idrissa Gana Gueye and Ilman Ndiaye, Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson, Tottenham’s Pape Matar Sarr and Crystal Palace’s Ismaila Sarr.
Goalkeeper Edouard Mendy and defender Kalidou Koulibaly, both formerly of Chelsea, are also included.
