Yan Diomande pens an incredibly emotional tribute to his late sister 💔:
🗣️ "Everything I do on a football pitch, it’s for you.
Remember when they took me on trial at Bournemouth? At Chelsea, Rangers, Olympiacos, Crystal Palace? Eze and Olise even came up to me after one training and said, 'Yo kid, you’re really good.'
But they still didn’t sign me.
Even the B teams in the MLS didn’t want me. I didn’t even know why. They never gave me a reason. The adults handled everything. They just kept taking me all around Europe, and everybody kept saying no.
My visa was up. My dream was over. They sent me back to Africa, and we cried together.
You were the one who never stopped believing. A few weeks later, I signed for Leganés and we cried different tears.
That was back when I used to have emotions. Now, I don’t feel anything. It’s like I’m not even human. Since you died, I’m just blank.
I wrote this because I can’t speak about it. I wrote this because I want you to know that I will make sure that you live on. I will make sure that everybody knows your name. The whole world."

🚨 William Saliba has opened up about the loss of his mother in 2019, shortly after joining Arsenal. 💔
🗣️ Saliba: "I had cost €30M and found myself playing with the U23s. It was difficult. My morale was really low because I knew that even if I trained well, I wasn't going to play.
"With the loss of my mother, nothing was going right. Everything was hard. She was everything to me and, thankfully, I had great people around me. It was the worst year of my life."
Atef Konaté, a close friend of Saliba, added:
🗣️ Atef Konaté: "William never went to the coach to tell him that he had lost the most important person in his life.
"Partly because he didn't speak English very well at the time, but mainly because he kept telling me: 'If I have to play, it won't be out of pity.'"
An incredibly difficult period in his life. ❤️🇫🇷
