🚨 Transfer Talk : Bea Mountain to land Emmanuel Logan before the end of the January transfers window

As the transfer window stills open on the local scene, toptier league club FC Bea Mountain is on the verge on landing Emmanuel Logan of Shiata FC.

As per what we have gathered the Grand Cape Mount Pride Boys FC Bea Mountain is hopefully of signing the Careburgs outfit club versatile player Emmanuel Logan.

Logan as he affectionately called " Palacio " has been a phenomenal player for Shaita FC since the start of the new season where he features in 16 game for the club in all competition this season.

Logan has not just been phenomenal in the central park of the midfield for the Careburgs outfit club Shaita FC but he has been a regular starter under the watchful eyes of Coach Wattala Hne Moore with him been been used in all area on the field during the club matches.

His admiration by FC Bea Mountain came in a match between the two clubs at the George Weah Technical Center in Careburgs in an Orange Cup fixture where the host team Shaita FC defeated FC Bea Mountain in penalty shootouts after a one-all-draw which saw Shaita FC advancing to the next round of the competition

And it not yet clearly understood what may becomes of the negotiation between the two clubs but what we can confirm both parties started the negotiation of the player with Shaita FC not willing to sell the player but rather a loan deal but on th other hand FC Bea Mountain is desperately in need of a buy clause for the player which will see him move to toptier league club FC Bea Mountain before the commencement of the second phase.

Transfer Talk: Blackman Warrior FC eye Shaita FC star Momo Blamo

With the January transfer window now open on the domestic scene there's plenty of gossip swirling about who's moving where. We bring you all the latest buzz on rumours, comings, goings and, of course, done deals!

As per the done deal we reported last week about the sales of Gibson Freeman from CeCe United to Shaita FC at which time the club denounced such rumors but on yesterday the club offically announced the sales of its former player Gibson Freeman but did not states the transfer value of the former Freeport FC player.

From all indication it is well understood to be that the player Freeman move from the toptier league club CeCe United to the second toptier league club Shaita FC was a mouthwatering deal .

Elsewhere second league club Black Man Warrior FC is still eyeing the Goals Prince of Careburgs outfit club Shiata FC Momo Blamo.

It is of no secret that the River side club Black Man Warrior FC came close to capturing the signature of the Orange National League-2nd Division MVP and Golden Boot winner Momo Blamo a which time the player opted to extend his contract with the Careburgs outfit club Shaita FC after the marriage with Tony FC.

According to a source from Black Man Warrior FC they are willing to make Momo Blamo the highest tranfer player in the club history and morever the highest transfer player of the 2023/2024 January transfers window.

As it stands Momo Blamo is among the few highest earner at Shaita FC but his move to Black Man Warrior FC could make him the highest earner in the club history.

The Orange National League-2nd Division 2022/2023 MVP and Golden Boot winner Blamo has not been at his best this season but currently he is the club highest goalscorer in all competition with lesser hattrick with him registering 15 goals to climax the first phase.

On the other hand Blamo is very much eager seeing himself in the toptier league as toptier league club Wantaga FC is also monitoring him if he chooses to move in the toptier league.

Another reason could be his departure from the Careburgs outfit club Shaita FC could be if he Blamo continues such brilliant form by surpassing last season and seeing him not been the highest earner at the club where he recorded 30 goals in all competition for club which saw him scoping doubles award in the second toptier league of domestic football the Orange National League-2nd Division with the Careburgs outfit club Shaita FC .

Elsewhere former FC Fassell FC and BYC I player Henry Sakama is on the target list on Shaita FC to boost the defense of the Careburgs outfit club Shaita FC.

As per rumors the Watanga FC player Sakama is on the verge of leaving the former Orange National League-1st Division Champions Watanga FC in which his next destination could be at Shaita FC.

If all goes well with the sales of Henry Sakama to Shiata FC will see loanee Henry Korfeh could also go back as the player is desperate in returning in the toptier league of domestic league football.

Another option could also be is to see former versatile defender Albert Nimley could be part of the swap deal along with cash because it is of no secret that the former BYC 1, FC Fassel and Watanga FC player Nimley is surplus to requirement as per rumors dued to several offloading of players before the commencement of the second phase.
