Diouf in Senegal squad

Bolton striker El-Hadji Diouf in the squad for Senegal’s World Cup qualifier against Liberia on March 26 – even though he will be in the middle of a three-match domestic suspension.

The 24-year-old starts his ban by missing the match against Norwich on Saturday after being sent off in the FA Cup defeat by Arsenal at the weekend for lashing out at goalkeeper Jens Lehmann.

Trotters midfielder Khalilou Fadiga is also in the Senegal squad along with Salif Diao (Birmingham), Papa Bouba Diop (Fulham), Amdy Faye (Newcastle) and Henri Camara (Southampton).
