In Detroit and beyond, Abdoulaye Diop is showing what it means to play with purpose. From growing up in Senegal where soccer was everything, to inspiring the next generation of kids in Black communities across the U.S., his journey reminds us that this game can open doors and change lives. For @laye_d, football is more than a sport. It is a platform to represent, to give back, and to spark belief in those who might not see themselves in the game yet. His story is part of GroundsKeepers, a Black Star x @allstate series celebrating the people building culture, connecting communities, and pushing soccer forward.
