Mozambique called up Geny Catamo for the African Nations Cup (AFCON) qualification matches. The number 10 of Sporting CP will join the Mozambican national team for the two matches against Senegal and Sudan.

The two qualification matches will be held in Maputo, the capital of Mozambique. The first match is scheduled for September 25, while the second game takes place on the 29th of the same month.

Geny Catamo, a 24-year-old left winger, is a key player in the Mozambican national team. Last season, the player finished Sporting's season as one of the team's top scorers, significantly contributing to the conquest of the Portuguese national championship title.

The matches against Senegal and Sudan are decisive for Mozambique's qualification hopes for AFCON. The Mozambican national team seeks to secure qualification for the continental competition, where they aim to represent the country among the best African teams.

Why this matters

Mozambican football fans follow with interest the preparation of the national team for an important continental competition. The call-up of a prominent Sporting player demonstrates Mozambique's ambition in these decisive matches that will determine participation in the next edition of AFCON.
