Kaly Sène

Kaly Sène of Young Boys was born in Dakar, Senegal on 28 May 2001 (age 25).

Kaly Sène, born on 28 May 2001 (age 25), is a Senegalese striker with Young Boys, where he wears the no.9 shirt. His profile is that of a forward still building a body of senior work rather than a finished article.

His best league return came at Lausanne-Sport in 2023-24, when he scored 12 goals in 36 appearances. That is the season that gives his record some substance, rather than just promise.

At Young Boys in 2026-27, Sène has made six Super League appearances and scored twice. His market value is around £1.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

So far, Sène’s career has moved through Swiss football with one notably productive campaign at Lausanne-Sport and a current place in the Young Boys squad. He remains a developing centre-forward with a reasonable scoring base to build on.
