Paul Heckingbottom reacted to Iliman Ndiaye’s call to the Senegal National Team for the second consecutive time. The technician congratulates his player but worries regarding the attacker’s physical condition.
Just like last season, Iliman Ndiaye has become essential in the Blades attack. Just before joining the den of the Teranga Lions, he strongly participated in the victory of Sheffield United with his fifth goal of the season which opened the scoring for his club in the victory once morest Preston (2-0). The coach was delighted with his performance.
“Iliman, we know he has those moments in him. I criticized everyone at half-time and when he scored we were lucky.” said Heckingbottom, on Ndiaye’s goal. Moreover, according to The Star reporting his words, the technician asks the United board to give him an improved contract before the November tournament in Qatar.
Precisely, the player is currently in a group with the National Team of Senegal which is preparing for the World Cup. Ndiaye is among 14 United players selected by their respective countries at senior and junior level ahead of Birmingham City’s trip to Bramall Lane on October 1. Paul Heckingbottom is worried.
“All the games are played too far for my taste,” he said. “I would rather he was here at Shirecliffe with us. Seriously, no one is more proud of Iliman than me, that he has integrated into the Senegalese team and that he might potentially go to the World Cup. But I still won’t be quiet until everyone is back.
Iliman Ndiaye left England to join France, notably Orleans, where the first friendly match once morest Bolivia will be played on September 24. Three days later, he will travel to Austria where the second friendly match once morest Iran will be played.
