Corentin Martins, the head coach of the Barea, is expected to announce his squad list for the first two matchdays of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON 2027) qualifiers soon. A source from the Malagasy Football Federation (FMF) revealed that the called-up players should be known by next week.
While awaiting the official list, some clubs featuring Malagasy international players have already announced the call-ups of their athletes. This is the case for Eshan Kari, the defender for Royal Excelsior Virton, who plays in the Challenger Pro League, the second division of the Belgian championship.
During this FIFA international window between late August and early September, Madagascar will face Nigeria and Tanzania. These two matches are considered crucial for Madagascar, as there is only one qualifying spot available, given that the host nation, Tanzania, has already qualified automatically.
