His Dreams Were Coming True
Even though he was a local club player, Sadio still had a very tight budget. But soon, a chance encounter altered the course of his life. The French football scouts in the area discovered him and immediately signed him.
Amazingly, as a teenager, he was signed by the French football team Metz. Sadio’s talent was evident even as Metz faltered, and he was shortly acquired by the Austrian team Red Bull Salzburg for a Metz club-record of 4 million pounds ($4,8 million).
