Francois Boissy

This Senegalese center-back is a human lightning bolt who annihilates attacks with blazing speed and impeccable heading, even if his defensive positioning can sometimes wander. To stay focused, he insists on hiding a small pouch of soil from his hometown inside his left boot for good luck, leaving his teammates in stitches as they watch him hobble around before kick-off. His charismatic presence commands the backline, turning the pitch into a personal runway where he rarely loses a header or an interception.
