Young Senegalese defender Mamadou Sarr, who plays for French club Strasbourg, sustained an ankle injury during his team's Ligue 1 match, raising concerns for the Senegalese national team just days before the start of the Africa Cup of Nations "Morocco 2025".

The injury occurred during Strasbourg's 0-0 draw against Lorient in Ligue 1. Sarr, 20, was forced to leave the pitch before the start of the second half and departed the stadium using crutches.

Sarr, who has one international cap for Senegal, is part of coach Pape Thiaw's squad for the continental tournament.

The Africa Cup of Nations is scheduled to take place in Morocco from December 21 to January 18, 2026. This injury now threatens the promising defender's participation in the important event.
