With the African Under -20 football championship only a month away in Cairo Egypt, the Gambian contingent is counting down the clock with intense preparations.

“The Young Scorpions coach is also looking forward to inviting a few foreign based additions as re-enforcement to the crop of local players, team Manager Pa Suwareh Faye said in a positing on the GFF Facebook page yesterday. He noted with joy that the support from the GFF is overwhelming in providing logistics in the local preparation.”
