Abdoulie Tamba on trial in Sweden
The young Gambian defender, Abdoulie Tamba, is currently on trial with IFK Norrköping, the Swedish club.
The sporting director of the Allsvenskan club, Magni Fannberg, confirmed the player's presence in Norrköping for the past few days:
He is a very promising central defender we have been monitoring for several months. Now he is here so we can take a closer look at him.
After making his mark at Jam City in the Gambian second division, Abdoulie Tamba went on to join the Petroleum Boys of Fortune FC, where he delivered a standout full season. Solid, quick, and with excellent positional awareness, he impressed with his consistency, playing every minute of the season. Nicknamed "Kimpembe" by his teammates for his combative style, he is also recognized for his ball distribution and football intelligence.
IFK Norrköping bekräftar att Abdoulie Tamba, 19, anlänt för ett provspel med klubben. Den gambiske U20-landslagsmittbacken tillhör Fortune FC.

Abdoulie Tamba could therefore be a direct option to strengthen the defensive line left vacant at IFK Norrköping by Oppong. Meanwhile, Shakhtar Donetsk has also reportedly shown interest in the 19-year-old defender.
