The doctor explained that “a surgical intervention will be determined soon” for the former Liverpool star and Bayern Munich.
In his absence, Mane, 30, becomes the most prominent star of the next finals.
Mane’s participation in the World Cup squad has been in doubt with the African champion, since he was injured in the right-walled bone (Fibola) in the twenty-first minute during his Bavarian team’s victory over Werder Bremen (6-1) in the German Football League on November 8.
Nevertheless, coach Alyo Cisse included the Senegal squad in the hope of recovering the best African player and the golden ball runner for the best player in the world for the year 2022.
Cisse is now required to summon an alternative player to Mani, and he has a deadline until Sunday on the eve of Senegal’s confrontation with the Netherlands in the first group in the World Cup, which also includes Qatar and Ecuador.
