Senegal's goalkeeper Edouard Mendy will miss the World Cup match against Iraq due to a ligament injury, as reported by media sources. The 34-year-old player is unable to participate in the upcoming clash due to this health issue.

Following their joint effort to bring the Pastef party to power in March 2024, Bassirou Diomaye Faye and Ousmane Sonko are now in a political struggle that is reshaping institutional balances in Senegal. Sonko's dismissal from the Prime Minister position, his return to the National Assembly, and his election as head of the parliamentary institution mark a significant new chapter for the country, pitting a president with substantial constitutional powers against emerging political dynamics.
