Africa Cup of Nations semi-finalist Burkina Faso took a gamble before the tournament kicked off by inviting an unattached player and the decision has been a one both the player and the team will be proud of.
Ibrahim Blati Toure has been sensational for Burkina Faso in the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon winning three man-of-the-match awards in his five games so far.
But the effectiveness of the midfielder can be traced to the decision his country took before the tournament.
He last played for Athletic Football Club Eskilstuna in 2021 but his impressive display in the AFCON has earned him a new deal.
The 27-year old has been snapped up by Pyramids F.C of Egypt on a free transfer.
He will link up with his new teammates after the AFCON tournament.
