16 years old on the passport, but 30 in terms of physical appearance: Angola’s U17 goalkeeper turned the tournament upside down with his appearance. This is how the 16-year-old goalkeeper looks.

Jaslon Dala became the star of the African Cup of Nations U17 tournament, earning the title of the best player in the match. He’s only 16 years old, but his physical development, size, and composure raise questions for scouts. Such situations require careful attention from the CAF, along with thorough verification of his documents. But on the field, Dala already shows mature play. His confident actions deserve attention from European academies. This case highlights that talent and physical ability don’t always match passport information.
