Sadio Mane ruled Out
Sadio Mane looks set to be ruled out of the World Cup after suffering a reported tendon injury in his Bayern Munich side’s 6-1 Bundesliga win over Werder Bremen on Tuesday.
The Senegal forward appeared to be involved in a relatively innocuous collision with Werder defender Amos Pieper during the first-half, but with his country’s first match of the Qatar showpiece in just 12 days time, it appears that – according to L’Equipe – Mane’s issue is enough to see him miss out.
Bayern boss Julian Nagelsmann had initially said of the injury post-match: “It’s an unpleasant spot, it radiates a bit into the muscles.
“I think he has to go to the X-ray to see if there is something there, because it is splintering easily.
“But I hope that nothing is wrong. I can’t say anything for sure yet.”
