Maxime Lestienne

Maxime Lestienne fascinates me because he refused to define his career by Europe alone. A winger born in Kortrijk, Belgium, capped by his national side in 2013 and 2019, he eventually carried his game all the way to Singapore's Lion City Sailors. Where many players cling to the big continental stages, he widened his own horizon and found a place to belong overseas. At 176 cm he was never built to overpower defenders, so he must have lived on pace and craft. I admire the freedom in a footballing life that flows from country to country yet keeps chasing the ball.
