Injured Sadio Mane has named in Senegal squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar despite sustaining an injury in Bayern Munich's 6-1 victory over Werder Bremen on Tuesday.
Mane was replaced in the 15th minute by Leroy Sane after going down and headed straight down the tunnel for further treatment after being substituted.
He is a key cog of Aliou Cissé's side, who face the Netherlands in their opening Group A game on November 21 before taking on hosts Qatar, then Ecuador at the World Cup.
"We are monitoring the situation and have sent one of our doctors to assess him," Senegal coach Alioy Cisse said at a press conference in the Senegalese capital Dakar on Friday.
"On Thursday, Sadio spent the whole day in Munich before travelling to Austria for further tests. The good news is that he does not need an operation.
"We want the situation to evolve in two-three weeks. I don't want to rule him out."
Mane scored Senegal's winning penalty in the shootout victory over Egypt to clinch their first Africa Cup of Nations title earlier this year.
The former Liverpool player is reported to be suffering from a tendon and is expected to be on the sidelines for several weeks.
