Summary
Seydou Keita is a Malian retired footballer, born in Bamako in 1980. 1 A midfielder, he played in France and Spain — most notably for Barcelona, whose first Malian player he was — and later in Italy, and represented Mali for many years. 1 No source read makes any statement of his religion, so his data record records his faith as unknown. 12
Club career
Formed at the Centre Salif Keita in Mali and at Marseille, Keita played for Marseille, Lorient and Lens in France, then Sevilla and Barcelona in Spain, winning league and European honours with Barcelona between 2008 and 2012. 1 He later played in China for Dalian Aerbin, briefly for Valencia, and for Roma in Italy, before closing his career with El Jaish in Qatar. 1
Mali
Keita was a Mali international over many years and captained his country, playing at several Africa Cup of Nations tournaments. 1
Faith in the sources
There is nothing to report: the English, French and Arabic articles, each read in full, contain no mention of Keita's religion in their text or categories, and Wikidata carries no religion value for him at all. 1342 His record therefore states his faith as unknown, on complete absence, exactly as the sources leave it. 2
