According to the 51-year-old specialist, he has received two death threats for the inclusion or non-inclusion of certain players. The threat was expressed the day before the staff was named and reported to the police.

“I am very, very sorry to have gone so far,” Keyster told BBC Sport Africa on Tuesday. “No matter where you go in your life, no one deserves it.”

Born in Manchester, England, the player has played for various English lower league clubs, and between 2000 and 2002 he played seven games for Sierra Leone.

The Sierra Leone team, which ranks 108th in the FIFA rankings, has been training for Keystore from 2017 to 2019, as well as last year.

Sierra Leone’s national team has only entered the final tournament for the third time in its history, and for the first time since 1996.

The African Cup of Nations (African Championship) will take place in Cameroon from January 9 to February 6.

Sierra Leone’s national team has been drawn to Group E, where it will meet with the current champions Algeria, Côte d’Ivoire and Equatorial Guinea.
