Sources close to Sadio Mané say the forward has not retired from international football, despite recent comments about Senegal needing to regroup after the World Cup.
Reports of Sadio ManĂ©’s international retirement appear premature.
According to journalist Gary Al-Smith on X, sources close to the forward say his post-World Cup comments have only been about Senegal needing to “stay united, to reflect and to come back stronger to win trophies” — not a farewell message.
The sources add that any formal retirement announcement would come through ManĂ©’s own official social media channels, rather than secondhand reports.
As it stands, no such statement has been made, leaving his Senegal future technically open.
