Author of five achievements in four games, including a second double, Wednesday, against South Africa (5-0) in the quarter-finals of the African Cup of Nations under 17 years the captain of the Cubs, Amara Diouf, at 16 years old shines as much by his performances as his maturity in the game.

Trained at Génération Foot, which got him started, he is part of the team based in Deni Birame Ndao (Dakar) which won the U19 international tournament on February 24, organized by the Mohammed VI Academy in Salé (Morocco), thanks to Diouf’s only goal.
