Coach
:
Club Aredien de Lutte [Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, FRA]
:
He practised traditional Senegalese wrestling growing up before switching to freestyle wrestling at age 15 in Kabrousse, Senegal. "There is a nuance between Olympic and traditional wrestling. Senegal is great in the traditional one. But we chose to also practise the Olympic wrestling, perhaps to give the country a broader sense of the sport. At age 15 my coaches decided to take me to another direction and I have since embarked on Olympic wrestling." (49 North Wrestling Facebook page, 14 Jul 2016; wiwsport.com, 27 Jul 2017; sudonline.sn, 23 Apr 2008)

"My whole family are wrestlers, my brothers, my cousins. It started with my father." (wiwsport.com, 27 Jul 2017)

He was the Senegalese flag bearer at the opening ceremony of the 2017 Francophone Games in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire. (rfi.fr, 23 Jul 2017)
