Let's make this birthday one to remember.

36 years old (Born on December 27, 1988)

Happy birthday, CJ Sapong! Ever since you burst onto the MLS scene in 2011 with Sporting Kansas City—and snagged that Rookie of the Year title—you've brought constant charisma, a keen eye for goal, and countless joyful celebrations (can't forget those dance moves). From your clutch moments with Sporting KC to making waves in Philly, Chicago, Nashville, and beyond—you’ve scored not just goals but hearts wherever you've played.

Here's wishing a goal-scoring phenomenon who ages like fine wine another fantastic year. May the coming season bring endless victories and applause-worthy goals—keep smiling and dancing on!
