Falaye Sacko

Sacko is a high-volume distributive engine masquerading as a standard Tier-C defender, operating with a technical floor far higher than his environment suggests. While his 84.9% pass accuracy places him comfortably in the league’s top 20%, it is his ability to progress play—ranking in the top 30% for key passes—that marks him as a creative outlet from deep.
