        Another stupid choice. The amount of talent in spain team, in a few months we won't hear about him in the national team anymore while he could have simply done great things with the senegal team...

        Until his form dips and they call him a "mono negro". He will remember Senegal.

        Ouai mais il ne jouera même pas avec les Spanish et il se fera cracher dessus comme pas possible. Je lui souhaite bonne chance vraiment mais surtout bon courage. Meme s’il brille, ce ne sera pas facile

        He should go ask Inaki Williams who is of Ghanaian/Liberian roots. What a dumb move!

        I guess he will never make it to the first eleven. The Spaniards are so discriminative

        Dumb move. Marginal player at best. Will never be a mainstay in the Spanish National team. More chances for him in Senegal.
