Launching his career

Sharky was born on New Year’s Eve 1995 in Utrecht, the Netherlands, but also has proud Somali heritage.

He began posting on YouTube on August 17, 2025, under the name AfcSharky before shortening his name, which was a reference to his beloved Arsenal.

His account quickly grew and eventually he built up a following of 1.3 million followers. 

To whom he regularly posts videos where he takes part in the latest trends, with some TikTok dances, football challenges and videos with his friends in the Beta Squad and beyond.

Sharky formed the YouTube group MANDM with two of his closest friends, and AJ Shabeel. 

He also expanded the range of his social media content, by joining Beta Squad and hosting the SDS podcast, on which he has interview ex-Footballers and hosted live shows in Qatar and to a sold-out Hackney Empire.

However, one of his latest ventures has been SDS FC - his own five-a-side football club, which will be competing in the Baller League.

Baller League is a six-a-side competition which will be heading to the UK and the USA.

The UK Baller League was organised by KSI, who will be president of the UK branch.

The US version of the show will see IShowSpeed as president, with Ronaldinho the first confirmed manager.

KSI and IShowSpeed were part of the Sidemen Charity Match that sold out Wembley Stadium against other YouTubers, streamers and celebrities.

The charity match generated over £4.7 million for charities including BBC Children in Need.

Baller League UK will be presented by Sharky's friend Chunkz and Sky Sports star Olivia Buzaglo.
