AFCON 2027 Qualifiers: Mali Name 24-Man Squad for Rwanda Double-Header

Mali head coach Anthony Da Silva has unveiled a 24-man squad for their double-header match against Rwanda in the 2027 AFCON qualifiers in November.

Les Aigles will aim to continue from where they left off during the September 2027 AFCON qualifiers, where they secured back-to-back wins against Cape Verde (3-1) and Liberia (1-0). Those results have left Mali second in Group K with six points, level with Rwanda, with goal difference separating the two sides ahead of their meetings.
