The Bayern Munich star has been ruled out of the 2022 FIFA World Cup due to injury.

Senegal forward Sadio Mane is out of the World Cup following the leg injury he sustained while playing for Bayern Munich.

 
The 30-year-old picked up an injury to his right fibula in Bayern's 6-1 Bundesliga win over Werder Bremen last Tuesday.
 
Despite the injury, Mane was named in Senegal's 26-man squad for the World Cup but the former Liverpool forward will not feature in Qatar after being unable to recover from the injury.
 
Senegal were hopeful that he would be fit for the later stages, but officials have now confirmed he will not be in the squad in Qatar.
 
The reigning Africa champions will open their 2022 FIFA World Cup campaign against the Netherlands on Monday, with games against hosts Qatar (November 25) and Ecuador (November 29) in subsequent group A matches.
