The latest news has arrived just now, and since the injury to Sadio Mane which happened on November 8, we made contact very quickly with Bavarians.
I traveled to get all of his data on the 10 and 11 of November. It was decided to have another magnetic resonance image today to see if it was possible for Sadio to stay in the World Cup.
