In a major development for Gambian football, Wagadu FC’s standout player, Muhammed Kanteh, is set to embark on a thrilling journey to showcase his talent in the Turkish top tier, according to The Nerve Africa sources.
The forward, who played a pivotal role in Wagadu’s triumphant return to the GFF second division last season, is scheduled to undergo a trial with the Turkish club, aiming to secure a permanent move.
Sources from The Nerve Africa indicate that Muhammed Kanteh will be departing from the Gambia for Turkey on Thursday, marking a significant step in his burgeoning career.
The trial is viewed as an opportunity for Kanteh to exhibit his goal-scoring prowess and overall skill set, with the potential for a permanent signing hinging on his performance during the trial period.
During the 2023-24 season, Kanteh emerged as Wagadu’s top scorer, netting an impressive four goals in just eight league appearances. Despite missing two matches, he is already in contention for the coveted golden boot.
His imminent move to the Turkish top tier reflects not only his personal ambition but also highlights the growing recognition of Gambian talent on the international football stage.
