Pogba, Conte Ruled – Out Of Guinea’s 2021 AFCON Squad

The Syli National of Guinea will be without two players – listed in her initial list of the AFCON, penciled for January 9 – February 6 in Cameroon.

Florentin Pogba has been declared unfit and will not travel with the Guinean group. The FC Sochaux player has picked an injured on his right knee.

Florentin will only return back to action towards the end of January.

The 2021 AFCON would have been Florentin’s 3rd AFCON finals after he made the cut in 2015 and 2019.

Antoine Conte Universitatea Craiova, in Romania, equally will not be part of Guinea’s AFCON journey. Conte is equally injured – and after a talk with coach Kaba Diawara, he admitted not feeling 100 percent fit, and he thinks it will be honourable, if, he can give all in his first tourney call – up.

To replace these two, Kaba has called up two local players: Fonde Camara of Horoya AC and Gaoussou Youssouf Siby of Wakrya.
