Ex-Senegal star Moussa Badiane says it will disastrous if Demba Ba is named in AFCON squad
25.12.2014 LISTEN

Ex-Senegal international Moussa Badiane wants head coach Alain Giresse to sort out his personal issues with Demba Ba and include the striker his final AFCON squad.

There is a strained relationship between the two and there are reports the Frenchman will snub the Besiktas striker.

Ba has scored 8 goals in 11 Turkish Super League matches and third on the scorers chart this term.

Ahead of the announcement on Boxing Day, Badiane told RFM radio: “It would be unfortunate to make a Lions of Taranga squad without Demba Ba.”

“If Giresse has personal problems with the attacker, he must put the interest of Senegal first.”

Senegal open their AFCON campaign against Ghana on 19 January in Mongomo before playing South Africa and Algeria in Group C.
