When signing for European heavyweights Marseille, then manager Elie Baup described the Senegalese as an 'Accelerator', with his speed causing havoc in the opposition half.

Apart from being a speed-demon, Sougou is a good finisher as well. The Senegalese showed the same attributes during Mumbai's pre-season games when he scored five goals in two matches, including four in one match.

Coach Jorge Costa will be eager to let the Senegalese wreak havoc in the opposition box, with the forward having all it takes to make a big impression in Indian football.
