Ecureuils : Une liste de 23 sans surprise avec le retour de Bessan

Benin national team coach Michel Dussuyer took his time in releasing the final squad list for AFCON qualifying due to the many changing developments that impact which players are available. However, the veteran French manager finally put out his 23-player squad on Monday and revealed that a couple of foreign-based players, Olivier Verdon of Bulgaria’s Ludogorets Razgrad and Melbourne Victory’s Rudy Gestede, have been retained by their clubs. Géraud Viwami of BJ Foot has the full details on Les Écureuils ahead of their important games against Nigeria and Sierra Leone.
