Club career

Sabaly made his Ligue 1 debut with Evian in the opening game of the 2013–14 season against Sochaux-Montbéliard, playing the full game, which ended in a 1–1 draw.[2]

In August 2016, he agreed to a contract extension until 2020, before joining Bordeaux on a season-long loan.[3]

On 7 June 2021, Sabaly signed for La Liga club Real Betis on a free transfer, effective from 1 July.[4][5][6]

International career

Sabaly was born in France to Senegalese parents.[7] He has represented France at various youth levels, and was a member of the victorious squad at the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[8]

In 2017, Sabaly received his first call-up from Senegal.[9] He made his debut in a 2–0 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification win over South Africa on 10 November 2017.[10]

Subsequently, Sabaly was called up to the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, where Senegal finished as runners-up after a 1–0 defeat to Algeria in the final; Sabaly would end up being elected into the team of the tournament.

Salaby played in all four of Senegal's matches at the 2022 FIFA World Cup as the nation reached the round of 16 for the first time since its debut in 2002.[12]
