Injury bars Sadio Mane from Qatar World Cup

Senegal forward, Sadio Mane, will miss the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar after suffering a leg injury in Bayern Munich’s home match against Werder Bremen on Tuesday.

The former Liverpool player went directly down the tunnel for further treatment after he was injured.

However, Sadio Mane has been sidelined to miss the forthcoming World Cup.

Senegal face Netherlands in their Group A opener on November 21, followed by hosts Qatar and then Ecuador.

Mane’s penalty in the shootout victory over Egypt helped Senegal win their first-ever Africa Cup of Nations title earlier this year.
