When Real Sociedad signed Mohamed-Ali Cho from Angers at the start of the 2022 summer, the move raised some eyebrows as the French forward became a top five ...
Cho has already achieved a lot, as evidenced by the fact that CIES Football Observatory named him the fifth hottest outfield prospect born in 2004 or after or the fact that he made the 60-man cut of candidates for the 2022 Golden Boy award. [Real Sociedad](/clubs/real-sociedad) have a strong culture of bringing through talented youth prospects and converting them into professionals. He stayed there until his transfer to [Angers](/clubs/angers), meaning he has actually spent more of his life in England than in France, speaking both English and French fluently. Although Cho prefers to play as a wide forward, ideally on the right flank, he can perform in any position across the forward line, even at centre-forward. I knew that this was a good club, that was playing in Europe and among the top teams in LaLiga Santander. [Ligue 1](/leagues/ligue-1) side [Angers](/clubs/angers) had also spotted this potential.
