Senegal premier league outfit, Jeane D'arc are set to sign three players in the persons of mid-field maestro, George Cole, Muhammed sugufara and 'Sir' from GFA division one giant, Wallidan.

The players were fielded in the Jeanne D'arc test match against the Gambia U-17 held on Wednesday at the independent stadium, with George Cole featured in the mid-field, Muhammed sugufara on the right wing and 'Sir' on the defence-line up.

Jeanne D'arc is a team believed to have links with Banjul-based Wallidan.

Speaking to Foroyaa sports after the end of the game, Musa Ndao, former captain of Senegal and Coach of Jeanne D'arc confirmed the story.

Our purpose of coming to the Gambia is to rediscover our form and to possibly snap up some players like George Cole, Ahmed, to strengthen our squad. We are planning to possibly go with them to Senegal to join us for the season.

He added, for George, we know he is a player who was qualified and paced and by good grace, we shall be going with him and the wing (Muhammed Sugufara) and we think if we go with them, there would be lots of windows opportunities open to them.
