After his noteworthy performances against Ivory Coast in his first official match for Senegal during a World Cup play-off encounter, Papy Djilabodji has solidified his position as a key player in the team’s defensive lineup.
Ahead of Senegal’s friendly match against Mali this Wednesday as part of FIFA day, the Nantes defender expressed his determination to maintain his starting role: “I don’t feel any pressure, and I never will. Our focus is on recovering well and being in top form for the match. Personally, I always look forward and move on quickly from previous matches. I aim to continue improving, and we’ll see what happens this Wednesday,” Djilabodji shared with wiwsport.com.
The Nantes player is fully focused on securing a victory in the upcoming match and is already looking ahead to their next Ligue 1 fixture: “Our priority is to win on Wednesday. Then, we have a club match on Saturday against Ajaccio, and once again, we must aim for three points because it’s crucial,” he emphasized.
