Nicolas Pépé

Nicolas Pépé is an Ivory Coast winger, a quick, two-footed attacker famous for cutting in from the right and curling shots into the far corner. He moved to Arsenal for a club-record fee and later rebuilt his career in France, and remains a talisman for Les Éléphants.

His brace against Curaçao sent Ivory Coast into the World Cup knockouts for the first time in their history.
