Newcastle United’s Senegalese striker Papiss Demba Cissé is facing potential exclusion from a championship match due to a complaint filed by the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF). Cissé was expected to play in a friendly match against Niger on Wednesday but didn’t respond to the summons, citing back problems. The FSF is reportedly considering approaching international authorities to assert its rights, while discussions are ongoing between the club and the federations to allow Cissé to play in the upcoming match against Swansea. Newcastle is currently 10th in the English championship.
