International career

Born in France, Elana is of Martiniquais and Guinean descent.[1] In March 2019, 38-year-old Elana was called up to the Guinea national football team,[2] having previously played internationally for Martinique which is a non-FIFA member. He was unable to get a Guinean passport, as he was not able to confirm the Guinean village his grandparents came from.[3]
