Sierra Leonean defender joins Eskilstuna City FK

Sierra Leone defender Ishmael Koroma alias Jor Jor has completed a move to Swedish second division club Eskilstuna City FK for an undisclosed fee.

According to the clubs website, Koroma is delighted to join the club after training with the club for few weeks.

After missing out on Leone Stars Afcon double leg qualifiers against the Super Eagles of Nigeria, Koroma spent some weeks in Sierra Leone training with the National Home based team.

“Eskilstuna City has got an experienced defender in Ishmael Koroma. Really fun that Ishmael chooses to come to us. He had several offers on the table and financially we were probably the worst, but the environment we work in and the conditions we have given the group appealed to him.

We have got an incredibly experienced defender who already during the first training sessions controlled the whole team, a trait that will be very important in the coming season.

Koroma gives the whole team a sense of security and will infect its winning skull on other teammates” the Club website writes.
