But beyond the football, Isaac’s story carries a deeper meaning. Diagnosed with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, a rare genetic condition caused by a missing section of chromosome 4, Isaac has faced challenges many could never imagine. The condition brings developmental delays, reduced muscle growth, and distinctive facial features, as described by the French National Health Authority. Yet through football, Isaac has found joy, confidence, and a platform to raise awareness.
“Now, more people understand this condition and the realities of living with it,” his parents explained. “It was an incredibly painful and difficult period for us, but we want to turn it into something positive. We’re so proud that Isaac can represent children like him.”
