Yannick dos Santos Djaló (born 5 May 1986) is a Guinea-Bissauan-born Portuguese footballer who currently plays for Sporting Clube de Portugal, mainly as a forward (he can also operate as a winger).

Football career

Born in Bissau, Djaló was brought up through Sporting Clube de Portugal's prolific youth system, and made his first division debut on 16 September 2006, in a league match against F.C. Paços de Ferreira. He proved himself a quality player, often coming off the bench, and also appeared in Sporting's Champions League campaign, renewing during the season his contract with Sporting until 2013.

On 6 April 2008, after a four-month absence due to injury, Djaló scored both goals in a 2–0 home win over Sporting de Braga, having also scored the previous week, off the bench, in a 4–1 away success over Naval 1º de Maio. He finished 2007–08 in good form, netting the only goal in a win at Paços de Ferreira, which proved crucial in helping the side to retain its second place in the league. In the Portuguese Cup, Djaló scored twice in a thrilling 5–3 semi-final win against city-rivals S.L. Benfica.

On 16 August 2008, Djaló scored both goals in Sporting's win against defending league champions F.C. Porto to claim the Portuguese SuperCup for the second year in a row.[1] 12 days later, he was called-up to the Portuguese senior squad by manager Carlos Queirós, but did not make his debut.[2]

Personal

Born in Guinea-Bissau, Djaló lived most of his life in the Portuguese capital of Lisbon. His younger brother Aliu played for the Chelsea reserves, while his father, Mamadu, worked as a scout for most notably Chelsea and Boavista FC.
