U17 World Cup: Seydou Dembélé, a talented young Malian revealed to the world

Young Seydou Dembélé is the pride of Mali's rising generation of footballers. At just 17 years old, he has already established himself as one of the greatest hopes of African and world football.

Trained at the JmG Bamako Academy, the young Malian midfielder finished as the top assist provider at the U17 World Cup, with 4 assists. Dembélé's performances confirm the talent glimpsed a few months earlier at the U17 Africa Cup of Nations, where he distinguished himself with his maturity and influence on the game.

His tactical intelligence, unusual for a 17-year-old, suggests he is destined for the highest level. With such creativity and impact on the game, Seydou Dembélé already appears to be the next big revelation of Malian football. Indeed, it is fair to say that Mali has found its new gem.
