The Olympic gymnast from Manresa, Thierno Diallo, announced the publication of an autobiographical book during the Tot Esport 360º event in Barcelona, detailing his progression and competing at the highest level.

The athlete, who participated in the Olympic Games in Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024, made the announcement at INEFC in Montjuïc, the venue organized by the Barcelona City Council and the Generalitat. The publishing project is promoted by the Manresa City Council and involves collaboration with the Bevoltive team.

The book aims to be an inspirational tool that turns the athlete's personal story into a narrative of overcoming challenges for other young people.

The publication will cover Diallo's journey from his Guinean origins to his personal and sporting growth in Manresa, where he discovered gymnastics thanks to the municipal program Esport a la Carta. The main objective is to highlight mental strength as a fundamental condition for sustaining an elite career.
The event was attended by representatives of the Manresa City Council, including the Deputy Mayor and Sports Councilor, Anjo Valentí, and the Head of Education, Culture and Sports Service, Sílvia Saura. The organizers of Tot Esport 360º expressed the wish that the book presentation could be held at the same venue next year, framing it within the recognition of local athletes.
