Kaly Sène

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

Kaly Sène (born 28 May 2001, age 25) is a Senegalese striker with Young Boys, where he wears the No 9 shirt. His current market value is around £1.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

His strongest league return so far came with Lausanne-Sport in 2023–24, when he scored 12 goals in 36 appearances. That remains the clearest marker of his senior progress: a proper full-season contribution rather than a passing burst.

At Young Boys, the 2026–27 season has opened with a goal in his first Super League appearance. Sène’s career is still being shaped, but it has already moved beyond promise into regular senior football, with Lausanne giving him his most productive campaign and Young Boys now the next stage.
