Striker Musa Kamara returns to Bo Rangers on loan

Striker Musa Kamara returns to Bo Rangers on loan

Libyan club Al Ittihad striker Musa Noah Kamara is to join Bo Rangers on a six-month loan deal, Football Sierra Leone understands.

Bo Rangers are yet to make any official statement. However, a reliable source has confirmed this.

Al Ittihad announced Kamara’s capture in September last year on a free transfer after his contract with the reigning Sierra Leone champions was terminated.

The 22-year-old, who was unsettled upon his arrival in Libyan, has yet to play any match in the Libyan Premier League. He has been without active football for six months, but a loan move could revitalise his playing career.

Before his move, he was the Sierra Leone Premier League’s best player and top scorer. Kamara, who helped Rangers with 19 goals to win their first league title in 68 years, was part of the Sierra Leone side during the Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

The striker is a back-to-back golden boot winner – the Rangers striker is the first local star to achieve this milestone. He first won the 2019 Sierra Leone National Premier League with 15 goals with then-champions East End Lions.

He scored the first goal that helped to revive Sierra Leone to a 2-2 draw against the Ivory Coast in the African Cup of Nations group stage at the Japoma Stadium in January.

Kamara penned his first professional contract in 2019 with Swedish club Trelleborgs FF on a three-and-a-half-year deal in August 2019 but cancelled his contract after a week.
