Real
de Banjul Football Club are delighted to confirm the transfer of striker duo
Madi Fatty and Sulayman Sillah to NGB Niarry Tally of Senegal on a permanent
deal.
The
duo signed respective three-year deals with the Dakar based Club before the
closing of the transfer window in Senegal last week.
Madi
Fatty impressed the officials of the 2016 Senegalese Cup winner during Real de
Banjul’s participation at the Guediawaye invitational tournament in Dakar last
month.
Fisher,
as he is referred to by his former teammates, scored in Real’s 3-0 semi-final
win over US Goree before claiming the trophy with another 3-0 success over
Mauritanian side ASC Concorde.
Sulayman
Sillah, who joined Real de Banjul in August of 2015 from Lamin United as a
teenager, was sent out on loan to Tallinding United where he helped them gain
promotion to the GFF Division One as last season’s Second Division Champions.
The
tall lanky forward was sent to NGB for trials and he had an instant impact hitting
a hat-trick in his first test match which landed him his dream move.
Speaking
to www.realdebanjul.gm from his Dakar base, Madi expressed delight after
securing his move.
“I
am very delighted to join Niarry Tally with my teammate Sulayman Sillah although
it was little bit of a challenge to adapt to living in a new environment,” he
said.
“We
hope to make our new club happy by scoring goals in the league and in the CAF
Confederations Cup next year.”
The
duo celebrated their league debut with a goal each forming a new Gambian front
partnership in Niarry Tally’s 4-0 thrashing of Casa Sport on Tuesday at the
Stade Demba Diop.
Club
president William Abraham said: “I am wishing them well and hope that these
players would further work hard and develop even better to move to a higher
level.”
Everyone
at Real de Banjul would like to thank Madi and Sulayman for their contributions
to the club and wish them the best of luck in their careers, he added.
