Lens’ Malang Sarr to be called up for Senegal | OneFootball

Racing Club de Lens’ Malang Sarr (27) is expected to be called up to the Senegal squad for the upcoming international break, according to Foot Mercato.

At 27, the former French Under-21 international with six caps is expected to feature in Pape Thiaw’s squad for the friendly matches against Peru and Gambia on 28th and 31st March. Two crucial matches with less than three months to go before the kick-off of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, in which Senegal, recently crowned African champions, will be participating.

A well-deserved reward for the centre-back, who has had a stellar season with Les Sang et Or. Having become a key member of Pierre Sage’s squad, Sarr has started all 27 matches he has played in all competitions since the start of the season.

Having repeatedly expressed his desire to represent the Lions of Teranga in the past, Sarr has never had the opportunity to do so until now.
