Babacar Diocou debuts in professional football with Granada
If there is one name that has shone brightly in this first half of the Primera Federación, it has been that of our outstanding footballer Babacar Diocou Ndiaye (06/10/2004).
After a dream first half of the season with Arenas Club de Getxo, where he scored 5 goals and 4 assists, the winger has taken a new leap in his career by joining Granada CF in this winter market, already debuting in professional football in last Friday’s match against CD Leganés.
A debut that symbolizes much more than a simple change of category. It is the confirmation of constant growth and the reward for his enormous work over so many years.
Formed throughout his growth stage in the lower categories of Real Madrid, Babacar took an important step in his career last summer by signing for CD Tenerife, a club that was firmly committed to his talent and projection.
From the Tenerife team he was loaned to Arenas to continue his development and add minutes of responsibility in Primera Federación. And the response could not have been more forceful.
In just half a season he became, without discussion, one of the most destabilizing wingers in the entire category, not only for his figures, but for his real impact in each match.
Speed, confidence and ability to unbalance define Babacar, a winger who changes matches. Explosive speed, vertical driving, constant boldness and a natural ability to get rid of his rivals in one-on-ones. He attacks spaces with decision, fixes defenses and forces full-backs to live in permanent tension.
His self-confidence does not understand scenarios or categories. And that is precisely what now opens the doors of the Second Division for him, where Granada CF adds young talent with hunger and personality.
The leap to professional football comes as a direct consequence of his performance. It is no coincidence: after training for years in one of the best academies in the world, he demonstrated his enormous potential in the Arenas de Getxo led by Jon Erice. There he was an absolutely differential player and now, in Granada, he aspires to be so too, since he has no shortage of conditions to do so.
