A little breeze of freshness blows over the den of the Senegalese Lions.

Senegalese coach Aliou Cissé has decided to give six newcomers a chance, with a view to two friendlies: against Morocco in Rabat (October 9) and against Mauritania in Thiès (October 13).

The technician thus intends to carry out a few tests before the resumption of qualifications for the 2021 African Cup of Nations and a double confrontation against Guinea-Bissau.

Goalkeeper Bingourou Kamara, defender Ousseynou Ba, midfielders Joseph Lopy and Pape Cheikh Diop, and forwards Mame Baba Thiam as well as Boulaye Dia, will therefore try to score points in view of this deadline scheduled between 9 and on November 17th.

Aliou Cissé also left some executives aside for this rally, like striker Mbaye Niang or midfielder Pape Alioune Ndiaye.

History to give them time to manage the end of the transfer window and / or to adapt to their new club?
