[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, former Arsenal player Bacary Sagna has embarked on a brand-new career after retiring from professional football. He has spent five years developing a website and a supporting application, which use artificial intelligence to identify talented young players and connect them with professional clubs. Now, the Arsenal legend describes himself as an “online coach”. In an interview with Ladbrokes at the Rades Fackson brand launch event, he said: “I have seen too many gifted children whose talents go to waste because they are not discovered or lack opportunities. That is why I have devoted five years of hard work to this project, and it has finally been launched.” Bacary Sagna officially retired from football in 2019 and later moved to the Middle East, where he has been living a stable and quiet life. He stated: “After retiring, I needed to reclaim my own life. I have always valued my privacy, but when you are at the top level of professional football, privacy is simply not an option.”
The editor believes that through artificial intelligence technology, we can collect player data, generate professional reports for young players, and compare the abilities of different players—even when they are still very young. The potential of this technology is endless, and now is the perfect time to put it to good use. I hope it can help countless players with dreams.
