A new African striker, USMA

The name of San Pedro Ivory Club striker, Dramane Kamagati, has been linked to USMA as the start of the winter transfer market approaches.

The Ivorian media unanimously agreed that the management of the United Arab Emirates Capital had decided on the deal for the 20-year-old Ivorian player.

Meanwhile, San Pedro hinted at the imminent departure of his star in his latest posts on social media.

Kamagati appeared emotional as he bid farewell to his teammates following the Inova Sporting match for the 15th round of the Ivory Coast League.

The right alternative at the right time

USMA dispensed with its Liberian striker, Ernest Emnyal, at the request of the technical staff led by Abdelhak Ben Sheikha.

Ernest was unable to reserve a starting position in the team, and did not even rise to the position of substitute card despite the deficiency recorded at the level of the offensive line.

Bin Sheikha was forced to make tactical changes to compensate for the absence of a clear striker capable of scoring goals, as he began to rely on the two wingers, Houssam El Din Ghesha and Ahmed Khalidi only.

Bringing Draman Kamagati will allow Al-Ittihad to have an element capable of providing the necessary addition in depth.

Daraman faced USM Algiers, along with his club San Pedro, in the African Confederation Cup, during the first round played in Algeria.

The top scorer in the Ivorian League during the first leg this season (8 goals), was able to score in the match that Saadi Redouani’s teammates won in their favor by three goals to two.

He also scored a brace against Mali’s Joliba in the second round of the Confederation Cup.

Camajate gave San Pedro the three points in the match, which was held on the floor of Laurent Boco, to rise to second place.

USM Algiers leads Group A with six points, gained from two victories against San Pedro and Olympique Safi of Morocco (away from home 1-0).
