Fifteen-year-old Gambian talent Muhammad Lamin Drammeh, who journeyed to Italy via the Mediterranean Sea through the route locally known as the “back way”, has officially signed for Catania’s U-17 side.

The versatile midfielder-turned-winger joins the youth setup of the Serie C club with hopes of breaking into the senior team in the near future.

Muhammad Lamin’s move marks a significant step in his football journey, which began on the streets of The Gambia and now continues in one of Italy’s historic football cities.
