Sierra Leone defender Alie Sesay revealed his delight after being named in the Indonesia BRI Liga 1 round 16 Team of the Week.

The former Leicester City player has been in fine form this season and was impressive in Persebaya 3-0 win over Persib at the Maguwuharjo Stadium on Wednesday.

In thirteen appearances for his Indonesian side, Sesay has helped the team unbeaten in twelve games, nine wins and three draws.

“It’s nice to be recognised for my good performance, and five clean sheets in a row is what every central defender wants,” Sesay to FSL Sports.

They are fourth on the log, seven points adrift from leaders Bhayangkara Surabaya and to compete for the championship title, a strong defence is a necessity.

Persebaya next outing is a home game against Bali United on Monday.

Dynamo Kyiv striker Ibrahim Kargbo has resumed light training under the watchful eyes of the team’s fitness trainer.

Kargbo Junior was involved in a 32nd-minute collision with goalkeeper Nikola Vasil in Olimpik Donetsk’s 2-1 win over Zorya Luhansk on Wednesday, April 28th 2021, in the Ukrainian top tier.

The young attacker was on loan to Olimpik Donetsk but has returned to his parent club Dinamo Kyiv.

Olimpik Donetsk says back in April that an examination showed a double fracture of small and large birch bones.

Kargbo, 21, surgery was successful and has been out since April.

“The forward will spend the next three months in a cast, after which he will start full rehabilitation,” Olimpik Donetsk said in a statement after his operation. 

Born in Sierra Leone, Kargbo junior has represented Belgium at the youth international level.

In December 2019, he signed for the Ukrainian club Dynamo Kyiv.

Sierra Leone defender David Sesay has returned to Wealdstone first-team training a few days after joining the club.

The former Barnet centre half, who has been on the sidelined since October, confirmed his return to first-team training with his new club. However, there is still uncertainty on when he will make his debut for his new side. 

Wealdstone will engage promotion-chasing FC Halifax Town at the Grosvenor Vale on Saturday. 

Sesay played in all three matches for the Leone Stars in their training camp in October. He was injured in the last friendly against Morocco home-based side.

Wealdstone announced the signing of Sesay on a free transfer after leaving National League rivals Barnet on November 26 2021.

He made his Leone Stars debut in a 1-1 draw against South Sudan in a friendly international at the Stade El Abdi in Morocco.

The Watford Academy product began his professional career at Crawley Town, where he made 70 appearances in three seasons before joining Barnet this summer.
