Nobel Mendy is expected to be called up to the Senegal national team for the international break in March

He has reportedly already had a meeting with coach Pape Thiaw, who is preparing to publish the list of players called up.

Nobel Mendy is having a great season with Rayo Vallecano in the Spanish La Liga. The young defender had already expressed his dream of representing Senegal, particularly at the World Cup. And he is certainly getting closer to realising that dream. According to sources, the Senegalese player's performances could be rewarded.

Nobel Mendy is expected to receive his first call-up to the Lions of Teranga for two friendly matches against Peru on 28 March in France and Gambia on 31 March in Dakar. The defender is said to have spoken with Senegal national team coach Pape Thiaw. The list of players called up for this FIFA window will be published soon.
