Mara Kanté, a promising footballer whose aspirations were disrupted, shares his story in a book titled “Guilty Prejudice.” Accused of attempted murder of the police during the 2007 Villiers-le-Bel riots, Kanté spent 29 months in prison before being acquitted in October 2011. The Franco-Senegalese player, now 25, reflects on his journey as a dedicated young footballer before the unfortunate episode. Kanté started in amateur clubs, gradually progressing through the ranks, from District 1 to Senior DH, and eventually reaching 18 years national in Brétigny-sur-Orge. In the book, he shares his passion for football and his struggles against prejudices.
