Sammy Bossut

Goalkeeping is the most thankless job in football, which is why Sammy Bossut earns my admiration. Born in Tielt, West Flanders, he gave the bulk of his career to a single Belgian club, Zulte Waregem, in an era when one-club loyalty has become almost extinct. I value that constancy far more than a glittering transfer record. Standing 187 cm between the posts, he must have lived through every high and low alongside the same supporters for years. That kind of rootedness, of becoming part of a community rather than just passing through it, is what I find most worth celebrating about him.
