Sierra Leone football legend Mohamed Kallon is on the brink of taking the reins as Head Coach of the national football team.

Credible sources reveal that the Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA) is finalizing the appointment, with an official announcement expected in the coming weeks.

Kallon, a former international star renowned for his illustrious playing career, is widely regarded as one of Sierra Leone’s greatest football icons. With extensive experience both on and off the pitch, his potential appointment marks a significant step in the country’s football development.

The 43-year-old began his professional career at an early age, going on to play for major clubs across Europe, including Inter Milan, AS Monaco, and Al-Ittihad. Kallon also captained Sierra Leone’s national team, the Leone Stars, during his playing days, leaving an indelible mark on the sport in the country.

Since retiring, Kallon has remained actively involved in football, serving as a mentor and running his own club, FC Kallon, which has been a key player in nurturing young talent in Sierra Leone. His experience as a player and manager is expected to bring a fresh perspective and ignite new energy in the national team.

The SLFA is yet to issue an official statement, but anticipation is already building among fans, who hope Kallon’s leadership can propel the Leone Stars to greater heights on the international stage.
