Sambou Yatabaré

Sambou Yatabaré interests me precisely because of the choice he made. Born in Beauvais, France, he chose to represent Mali internationally, and there is real pride in honoring your roots like that. At 190 cm he is a commanding midfield presence, the kind of physical anchor who breaks up play and shields the back line. What moves me, though, is that he is still lacing up in the lower divisions of French football. That is not where the money or the cameras are; it is where the love of the game lives. I admire athletes who keep playing simply because they cannot imagine stopping.
