Mbaye Niang has decided not to honor the summons for the Senegalese national team, preferring to focus on his club commitments with AC Milan. According to a source close to the Senegalese national technical direction, Niang contacted coach Alain Giresse, expressing his inability to join the national team due to club commitments, especially with AC Milan’s ongoing competitions. Giresse, in response, mentioned that Niang was under suspension with the French team for disciplinary reasons and that retaining him in the Senegalese selection could worsen his case. This situation has caused concern within the Senegalese national team, and some individuals feel that Giresse should have been aware of Niang’s situation before initially summoning him.
