Senah Mango (born December 13, 1991 in Lomé ) is a Togolese football player .

Club career

The defender Mango grew up in Togo and played there in his youth until talent scouts from Olympique Marseille noticed him and lured him to France in 2007. He was now a member of the club's youth department and was part of a team that became the French under 16 champions in spring 2008. Then he was allowed to participate in the season preparation of the professional team based in the highest national league at the age of only 16. For the 2008/09 season he did not move into the professional squad, but at least into the fifth-rate playing reserve team. For this he was regularly on the field until he was suspended a few months later by the French football association FFF . This was justified by the fact that the parents of the still minor continued to live in Togo and that this constituted a violation of the association's rules. Therefore, the young talent could not compete in any official meeting until he reached the age of majority on December 13, 2009. At the same time he was a member of the senior national team in his home country.

After his 18th birthday, he ran again for the reserve team and shortly thereafter signed a training contract before he had a professional contract from 2011. Although he had regularly taken part in the professional training sessions up until then, he had not yet made it to any appearances, which is why he was awarded to the second division club AS Monaco in the summer of 2011, which is part of the French league system . Although there was even a purchase option for the Monegasque, he only received match practice in the reserve team. He then returned to Marseille in January 2012, where he was also part of the second selection. After years of waiting, the now 20-year-old made his professional debut for Marseille on August 30, 2012 when he was called up in the Europa League in a 0-0 draw against the Moldovan club Sheriff Tiraspol for the full 90 minutes of playing time. Thus he had also made his debut in European competition. In the further course of the season, however, he had to be content with belonging to the second team and had no prospects with the professionals, so he was loaned to third division club ES Uzès Pont du Gard in January 2013 . In this he was usually seeded before returning to Marseille in the summer of the same year.

Little time passed after his return until he was awarded again in the third division for the 2013/14 season. From then on he wore the jersey of the club Luzenac AP , which is based in the extreme south of the country, and became a regular player in spring 2014. At the end of the season not only succeeded in promotion to the second division, but Mango's contract with Marseille was also due to end. Luzenac wanted to keep him, so he signed a contract with the budding second division team for the new 2014/15 season. Since the club did not receive the necessary license, was not eligible to play in the third division and was ultimately downgraded to a lower amateur league, his contract was not valid and he was initially without a club. In June 2015, he joined the northern French third division club US Boulogne .

National team

About a year after moving abroad, he made his debut for the Togolese national team at the age of only 16 when he came on as a substitute on August 20, 2008 in a 46-minute defeat against DR Congo in the 46th minute. Subsequently, he was occasionally used and on September 6, 2009 he came in a 1-1 draw against Morocco as part of the qualification for the 2010 World Cup for his first international competitive game. Ultimately, Togo did not take part in either this tournament or the 2012 African Cup of Nations.

As of November 2012, Mango was no longer considered and therefore also missed the 2013 African Championship , where his country reached the quarter-finals.
