Captain of the LOSC defense since the start of the season, Bafodé Diakité is showing himself to be more and more vigilant on the details, those which allow him to keep the pace imposed on the Mastiffs.
90 minutes here, 120 minutes there, Bafodé Diakité (23 years old) is the only outfield player to have played all of LOSC’s matches this season, a symbol that he has become the boss of the Lille defensive base . This Saturday, in a victorious opposition with Toulouse FC, he found himself once again aligned in the central hinge. The meeting was not easy for him, but he feels good. The central defender tries to maximize his behavior off the field to keep up the pace. His humor, for his part, is always sharp.
You haven’t missed a single minute this seasonhow do you feel? “I feel good. That’s why I’m taking a doping test, they think I’m cheatingBafodé Diakité jokes. The central defender also hits the mark with an audience fond of unexpected exchanges. More seriously, I feel good. I try to recover properly, sleep well and eat well. I know that’s what will make the difference this season. We had matches every three days last year, of course, but the intensity was not the samegrateful that he’s still discovering a new world this season. There, we have to be diligent about every detail: sleep, recovery, our diet, training… but everything is fine for the moment”he concluded, with a huge smile following LOSC’s victory over Toulouse FC (2-1) this Saturday.
