With an average rating of 8.47, he surpasses Ivorian Alynho Haidara and Moroccan Abdellah Ouazane.

A small consolation for the new gem from Génération Foot after the Senegal national team's elimination from the competition in the quarter-finals against Côte d'Ivoire.

A new Lamine Camara is born

Ibrahima Sory Sow is already being compared to Lamine Camara, the AS Monaco and "Lions" midfielder.

It's true that technically both players are on par, even though young Sow is an excellent set-piece taker.

He is expected to join FC Metz when he comes of age, just like Amara Diouf and other gems from Génération Foot.
