John Keister name his 5 [five] first International called for Sierra Leone Descendant players Abroad to part take into the AFCON Cameroon 2022.

 

We all know what time it is, after an era of mediocrity in the 1960s, Leone’s Star, a soccer club entered a new era of football competition. In the late 1970s and all of the 1980s when they made a brilliant impression on the minds of football fanatics in Africa. This has been another era through which we can go through tough competition next year's football season.

In that regard, Sierra Leone Coach John Keister  has reconsidered and started talking to the Sierra Leone descent players that are have playing time in major leagues abroad. Sierra Leone is not known for winning trophies, but when the books are ever written about teams that embellished football in west Africa, her name will not be left out. There are some natural talents out there, that their birth trace is from Sierra Leone and which they have never been able to play for this beloved country, because of their trace of birth. But this time around I thinks  it is going to be a different story in the selection of players that will represent Sierra Leone in the AFCON 2022 Competition.

We also have great talent at home, that are mature enough to take Leone star at another level of the competition, but with the fact, we also need experienced players that have played in exposed competition and had made the mark for then selves abroad.

Below are these players that Coach John Keister has put In mind to bring back home. Their names and brief club biography
