The path of a professional footballer is not always linear and some must practice a longer path than others to reach the highest level. This is the case with Ibrahima Sy. After 7 years at the Reims stadium, Ibrahima signed his first professional contract last summer with English club Stoke City. The box-to-box midfielder, who shone with Senegal during the 2019 U17 World Cup, then caught the eye of many European clubs (Friborg, Lazio, Naples, Stuttgart in particular), but the one who finished in the 20 best youngsters of the competition in Brazil had finally decided to join the Potters.

After a few weeks of adaptation, the athletic 19-year-old player (he will celebrate them on December 16) quickly established himself in the U23 team of the English club. But Sy yearns for more and may well leave Stoke City this winter to glean pro playing time this winter. According to our information, some Italian clubs follow his performances, as well as 4 French clubs including Niort and Nancy who are very hot about him. It remains to be seen who will succeed in attracting this rough diamond which asks only to shine.
