Minteh’s Path to Glory

Minteh’s skill and determination have been crucial in securing The Gambia’s spot in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) for a second consecutive year. Despite The Gambia’s group stage exit in Côte d’Ivoire, Minteh’s performances left a lasting impression, showcasing his talent and resilience.

A Trailblazer for Gambian Football

Minteh’s nomination as CAF Young Player of the Year puts him alongside notable Gambian players who previously received this recognition, such as Musa Barrow in 2019 and James Gomez in 2022. His rise in the football world is a source of pride for fans and young aspiring players back home, showing what hard work and dedication can achieve.
