Cape Town City sign Gambian Star

Published on

Cape Town City have continued to bolster their squad for the rest of the campaign after announcing the arrival of Gambia star Kajally Drammeh.

The Gambia international has now become Eric Tinkler’s fourth signing after Fidel Brice Ambina, Mogamat May and Darwin González.

The 18-year-old winger joined the Citizens for a club-record fee and will remain at the club until June 2026.

“Kajally Drammeh is a young, attacking player that we scouted from the Gambia,” Eric Tinkler said via the club’s media department.

“He’s someone who we’ve been chasing since the start of the season but we only managed now to conclude the deal.

“We’ve been watching him every single week in the Gambian league. He’s 18 years old but shows a level of maturity that [indicates] he’s more than capable of already playing at the highest level.

“There was a lot of interest from Europe in him and I think we’ve managed to snap up a very talented young player before he made that move.

“Like I said, he’s a very creative player, an intelligent footballer, can play wide, can play as a 10, so he’s someone I believe will have a very bright future.”
