Gambian
teenage midfielder Musa Jarju has moved to Senegalese premier league side ASC
La Linguere de Saint Louis on a-2-year loan deal.
The
promising 18-year-old recently moved from Gambia Football Federation’s first
division side Banjul United to the Senegalese giants.
In
an interview with Pointsports, Jarju expressed delight about the move, saying
he was ‘so happy’ when he received a call from his agent Momodou Bah informing
him about the move.
He
thanked Gambian teammates Alagie Jobe alias Toldo, Hamidou Bojang and Molamin
Manneh for their support and encouragement, saying that since he arrived at the
club they have been very motivating and helpful to him. “They instill a lot of
confidence and courage in me,” he said.
He
also said the presence of the trio at the club had helped to boost his
confidence and encouraged him to settle well at the club, saying with their
experience and support he hopes to develop into a better player.
He
thanked them for their support in ensuring he copes with the system in his new
environment.
He
also thanked his agent and brother Lamin Boy Jarju for making everything
possible for him through the help of God.
According
to him, the first few weeks at his new club were so hard that he nearly got
discouraged as he was always left out of training but the support of his
Gambian teammates kept him motivated. He commended the trio for always giving
their all to the club.
