Pathe Ciss News: Back from AFCON duty

Published on January 22, 2026

Ciss (not injury related) is back from his AFCON duty with Senegal and will be an option against Osasuna on Saturday.

Ciss was part of the Senegal squad who won the 2025 AFCON title, but he was merely a depth piece for the Lions of Teranga. He should see steady minutes at Rayo, either as a center-back or as a defensive midfielder.
