Who is the Ugandan set to feature in this year’s World Cup?

Pione Sisto was born in Uganda but moved to Denmark with his family when he was just a couple months old. There, he caught the attention of scouts when he was just seven years old.

From there, he earned a move to Celta Vigo of Spain in 2016 and has really shined for the club. The 23-year-old is so good with the ball at his feet, he’s got great speed and tough and the ability to make defenders look silly. He is a serious candidate to lead Denmark to the knockout stage and should work well with Christian Eriksen in the middle.

He’s been linked with many clubs in Spain and could jump to a bigger club after the tournament.
