Manchester United Smitten Boy Wonder from Gambia

Liputan6.com, Jakarta- Even though they are currently focusing on hunting top strikers, English club Manchester United is also not hunting for talented talents from all over the world. Most recently, MU has a big crush on the Gambian wonderkid, Adama Bojang.

The 19-year-old plays as a striker. Bojang is still under contract with Steve Biko FC. Bojang’s name is fragrant after performing brilliantly with the Gambia U-20 national team.

Bojang was able to score four goals to bring Gambia to the final of the U-20 African Cup earlier this year. Unfortunately, at that time Gambia failed to win and had to admit Senegal’s advantage 0-2.

At the 2023 U-20 World Cup which was held in Argentina last month, Adama Bojang also played well. Bojang scored two goals and helped Gambia qualify until the round of 16.

Bojang’s slick performance has made many big European clubs glance at him. British media The Guardians on Wednesday (21/6/2023) reported that MU is the latest club interested in Bojang to be recruited in the 2023 summer transfer market.

Before MU, Bojang hunters had six Premier League clubs, namely Newcastle United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The price of Bojang is still very cheap. Steve Biko FC is reportedly ready to let Bojang go for only three million euros. But the problem is the UK’s recently renewed work permit and it’s more difficult.
