Aristide Bancé

No phrase fits Aristide Bancé better than football nomad. Born in Abidjan and capped by Burkina Faso, this towering 193 cm striker scored 27 goals at Lokeren in Belgium, then moved on to Donetsk in Ukraine and Mainz 05 in Germany, treating borders as mere details. What impresses me is the adaptability hiding behind all that wandering. Landing in country after country, with new languages and cultures each time, and still proving yourself with goals takes a remarkably steady nerve. Now turning to coaching feels right too, pouring everything he absorbed across Europe into the next generation. I am quietly rooting for him.
