The Gambia national team (Scorpions) are set to take on New Zealand in an International friendly match on Tuesday 16th November 2021 in United Arab Emirate (UAE). 

Coach Tom Saintfiet and his 25 man squad are currently in the United Arab Emirates for a training camp.

This will be the Gambia’s final training camp before the pre AFCON training camp ahead of the continental showpiece that is set to start on the 9th of January 2021.

Both Modou Barrow and Bubacarr Jobe who were part of the Morocco camp, missed out on the team due to “quarantine rules and work permit”. The two players are replaced with Ebrima Colley and Muhammad Mbye.
