Friday 19-06-2026
The Saudi Al-Ahli Club officially announced the signing of Gambian defender Abu Bakr Sidik Conteh from Norwegian club Tromsø, with a contract extending for five seasons.

This signing comes after competition from several clubs that tried to enter the deal at the last moment, but Al-Ahly finalized the agreement early in its favor.

According to press reports, Al Ahly club was in an advanced position during the negotiations, despite attempts by other parties to snatch the player before closing the deal.

Sources confirmed that Al Ahly has reached a full agreement with Tromsø Club, following the Norwegian club's approval of all the transfer terms.

Kinteh, aged 19, is considered one of the most promising emerging defensive talents in Gambian football in recent times.

The player attracted attention with his outstanding performances, which led several European and Arab clubs to follow him before Al Ahly finalized the deal.

Al-Ahly hopes that Kinteh will be a strong addition to its defense line in the future, as part of the club's plan to support young players.
