Alassana Jatta, the prolific Gambian striker is mulling over a potential move to a Norwegian Eliteserien club, Kristiansund, as per The Nerve Africa sources.Β Β
While Jatta has garnered concrete interest from various foreign clubs, including Stabaek in the Norwegian division one, sources suggest that the 25-year-old center-forward is giving serious consideration to Kristiansund, who competes in the top league of Norway.
It’s not just Norway in the picture; Stabaek, along with clubs from Qatar and Israel, have thrown their hats into the ring to secure Jatta’s signature. However, the player’s agent hinted at a preference for Scandinavia, making Kristiansund an attractive option.
Jatta’s current contract with Viborg FF is set to expire in the summer of 2024. Despite significant interest, the Danish club has been hesitant to part ways with the striker, turning down a substantial offer from Mjallby IF in Sweden last summer. The tables seem to have turned, as a winter transfer for Jatta could prove more beneficial for Viborg FF than risking the possibility of him leaving for free in June 2024.
Since joining Viborg in 2019, Alassana Jatta has been a pivotal figure, notching up 25 goals in 105 appearances for the club. With a current market value of β¬400,000 according to Transfermarkt, Jatta’s potential move to Kristiansund adds another layer of excitement to the winter transfer window, leaving fans eager to see where the talented striker’s next chapter unfolds.
