Like many African nations, Benin is also preparing for the FIFA days in September. With this in mind, national coach Moussa Latoundji has released his list of 23 players who will face Mauritania and then Madagascar in Rabat, Morocco.
In this group of players, we note the return of the emblematic Stephane Sessegnon. The man with 83 selections (23 goals) is making his comeback, three years after his last appearance in the national shirt. It was against Sierra Leone (victory by 1-0) on November 17, 2019 in the CAN qualifiers in Group L.
