Sierra Leone’s Momoh Kamara nets brace in IF Elfsborg win over Västerås SK

Sierra Leone International Momoh Kamara scored a brace in week seventeen of the Swedish Allsvenskan in IF Elfsborg’s 3-0 win over Västerås SK at Borås Arena.

Julius Magnusson scored in the first half, and Momoh Kamara added two goals in the second half, taking his tally to three so far.

The match began with Västerås SK pressing high to disrupt Elfsborg. They nearly earned a corner in the first minute, but Elfsborg’s defence stayed calm. After settling in, Elfsborg took control of the game and created several scoring opportunities.

In the 19th minute, Elfsborg took the lead when Momoh Kamara passed to Julius Magnusson, whose shot deflected off a defender and went in for a 1–0 score. Elfsborg dominated possession in the first half but could not extend their lead.

In the second half, Västerås made changes and almost scored with a header. Elfsborg had a few chances but struggled with their final passes. With 20 minutes left, Kamara scored again, redirecting Niklas Hult’s pass to make it 2-0.

Kamara struck once more in the 77th minute with a curling shot to secure a 3-0 lead. Elfsborg controlled the match until the end, allowing the 6,155 fans to celebrate the victory and the three points.

Brima and Juana win Baltic Women’s Football League title

Two Sierra Leoneans were part of the FC Riga Women’s side that won the Baltic Women’s Football League (BWFL) championship in Riga on Saturday, defeating “MFA Žalgiris-MRU” from Vilnius 7:0.

Kumba Zainab Brima, who scored a hat trick, and Hannah Juana both celebrated together after full time. Minami Oi opened the scoring with a penalty kick in the third minute, followed by two goals from Kumba Brima. Oi scored another penalty just before halftime.

In the second half, Oi, Brima, and Karen Muradyan added more goals for a strong victory.

The BWFL tournament was established in 2005 and has been running for five seasons. After the 2010 competition, the BWFL tournament was suspended, but the competition was resumed in 2017.

Since the tournament was resumed, the best achievements of the Latvian representatives have been third place in 2017, 2019 and 2022, but in recent seasons a place in the final has been won – silver for the RFS team in 2024 and gold for the “Riga” football players in 2025.

Sierra Leone’s Ismaël Kabia joins Scottish club St Mirren

The 20-year-old winger, a Sierra Leonean native, has joined Scottish side ST Mirren as their ninth signing of the summer, moving from the English Premier League champions Arsenal for the 2026/27 season.

An impressive 2024/25 campaign saw Ismeal make his first-team debut for us in our 5-1 win against Bolton Wanderers in the Carabao Cup third round at Emirates Stadium.

Ismeal signed a second professional contract with us in August 2025 and was loaned to Shrewsbury Town for the 2025/26 season, where he made 43 appearances and won the League Two Goal of the Month award for April with a stunning long-range shot against Fleetwood Town.

He first joined Arsenal’s senior squad in September 2024, making a first-team appearance during a 5-1 EFL Cup win over Bolton Wanderers. After a pre-season friendly against Real Betis, Ismeal chose to join Craig McLeish’s team despite interest from other clubs. He will be available for selection in the upcoming Premier Sports Cup match against Rangers.

Manager Craig McLeish expressed excitement about the signing, highlighting Ismeal’s skills as a fast, direct winger who excels in one-on-one situations and emphasising that he brings motivation and potential for development.

Sierra Leone’s Hindolo Mustapha joins Notts County on loan

Hindolo Mustapha has joined Notts County on a season-long loan from Crystal Palace.

The 20-year-old attacking midfielder, who is a Sierra Leone International, has come to Meadow Lane after ending a loan with Wigan Athletic.

Richard Montague, our Director of Football, said: “Hindolo was one of our top targets this summer, so we’re happy to have him with us. He’s powerful, skilled, and direct, and can score different types of goals. Hindolo needs a stable home to establish himself in the men’s game, and that’s what we’ll provide.”

Mustapha came up through the youth ranks at Palace and signed his first professional contract in 2024. He renewed his contract last summer. At 18, he was selected by Sierra Leone for the qualifying rounds of the Africa Cup of Nations and scored a memorable goal against Zambia.

Last season, Mustapha was on loan at Nürnberg II and West Bromwich Albion, and now he is ready for a new chapter in Nottingham.

Striker Abu Kamara rejoins Portsmouth for an undisclosed fee

Portsmouth has signed Abu Kamara from Premier League club Hull for an undisclosed fee. The 23-year-old forward has signed a three-year contract, making him the club’s seventh new player this summer.

Kamara has returned to Fratton Park after a successful loan spell there last season, where he was instrumental in the team winning the League One title.

The team’s manager, John Mousinho, expressed his excitement about having Abu back. He mentioned that the club has wanted him to return for a while and that Abu’s previous loan spell showed what he can bring to the team.

Kamara, who previously played for England’s youth teams, came up through Norwich’s academy before joining Pompey on loan in 2023. During his year with Pompey, he scored 10 goals in 52 games, contributing to their promotion.

His performance included scoring two goals in an away game against Shrewsbury and providing 11 assists.

After his loan ended, Kamara returned to Norwich but was then sold to Hull. At Hull, he scored five goals in 40 appearances.

He spent most of the last season on loan at Getafe in Spain’s La Liga, where he played against well-known teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid.
