The Rouennais Malik Aliane, 1.90 m and 145 kg, is climbing the ranks of American football. The 21-year-old left Rouen (Seine-Maritime) to play American football on the other side of the Atlantic.
Malik is a phenomenon of precocity: upgraded with the Leopards after a few months while he was a high school student, he went so far as to play with the senior French team at just 19 years old. He was then recruited in 2022 by a Junior college (the equivalent of a second university division), the New Mexico Military Institute.
