Kenya’s Harambee Stars will take on Senegal in an international friendly arranged for the FIFA window in November.
The match is scheduled for November 18 at the Mardan Sports Complex in Antalya, Turkey, with kickoff at 15:00 GMT (6 pm EAT), the Senegal Football Federation announced.
This fixture marks the first meeting between the two nations since their 2019 AFCON clash in Egypt, where Senegal defeated Kenya 3-0 on the way to reaching the final. Kenya and Senegal also crossed paths in AFCON history, including a 2004 edition encounter that similarly ended with a 3-0 result for Senegal.
