In a much-anticipated move, Sierra Leone’s National Team manager, John Keister, has revealed his 23-man squad ahead of their crucial clash with Guinea Bissau.
This high-stakes encounter is set to be the closing act of the African Cup qualifier, scheduled for Monday, September 11, 2023, in Guinea Bissau.
