Mandou Bojang still harbours MLS dream

Thursday, February 12, 2009
He may not have succeeded in landing a permanent deal with the MLS giants, LA Galaxy, after a brief trial last season, but the Gambia Ports Authority FC defender, Mandou Bojang, is still keen to find a club for himself in America’s Major League Soccer.

The 20-year-old  rocky defender, who featured in all four matches for the Gambia Under 20 in the 2007 World Cup games in Canada, is set to join Sanna Nyassi’s Seattle Sounders  FC on trial.

A statement pasted on the club’s website said: “Mandou Bojang, a central defender formerly with Gambia’s Ports Authority and the U-20 National Team, will rejoin the squad in Seattle on February 18. Bojang last participated in the team’s January 30 session.” Bojang will be joined by another Gambian in Momodou Danso who was spotted from Southern Poly College in Georgia.
