The RSC Charleroi forward was expelled from his national
team camp this week after he allegedly slapped fellow teammate and captain
Abdoulay Diaby.
According to Footmali, the altercation allegedly initiated
when Mali national team players ordered a hairdresser to their hotel and once
he arrived Diaby sat on the barber chair. This didn’t please Niane who attacked
his captain before slapping him.
The team’s media officer, Ibrahim Coulibaly also confirmed
that the player has been sent home.
He told reporters: “Adama Niane was excluded from the Eagles
group for non-respect,”
Before this recent incident,
Burundi had sent home 32-year-old midfielder Selemani Ndikumana for
ill-discipline, before their first game without offering any further details.
On Wednesday Egypt sent Amr Warda packing for alleged sexual
harassment of several women social media. Warda has since been recalled back to
the squad.
Mali has since faced Tunisia with their reduced 22-man squad
on June 28 at the Suez Stadium which ended 1-1.
