Senegalese footballer Moustapha Mbow has expressed his strong ambition to be part of Senegal's squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, stating that he thinks about the tournament "every day." The 26-year-old has been in consistent form for his club and believes he has the qualities needed to earn a recall to the national team.
Mbow, who received his first call-up to the Senegal national team in August 2025, is eager to build on that experience. "I fulfil all the criteria. I work hard every day with that goal in mind," he said, underlining his determination to impress national team selectors ahead of the World Cup, which is set to be co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico in the summer of 2026.
The midfielder has established himself as a key player at club level, delivering regular performances that he hopes will catch the eye of the Senegal coaching staff. With the 2026 World Cup approaching, competition for places in the Lions of Teranga squad is expected to be fierce, but Mbow remains confident in his abilities and focused on his objective.
