Transfers: Lamine Camara, Malick Mbaye and Pape Amadou Join Metz From Generation Foot

TotalEnergies African Nations Championship winners winners Lamine Camara, Pape Amadou and Malick Mbaye have all joined FC Metz from Generation Foot for three and a half seasons.

The Generation Foot – FC Metz connection has once more been renewed this winter. Thanks to the partnership that has linked the two entities since 2000, Metz has announced the signing of three players who won the African Nations Championship a fortnight ago, all trained within ranks of thd Deni Biram Ndao based academy.

Dreaming of walking on the path of his predecessor Pape Matar Sarr, Lamine Camara will try to confirm the great promises displayed with the first team of Generation Foot. An elegant box-to-box player, effective in both surfaces and valuable in ball recovery, the neo-Messin celebrated his 19th birthday on January 5 and distinguished himself at the last African Nations Championship (CHAN ), reserved for African players playing in their native countries.

Named man of the match several times during the tournament, notably at the final won on penalties against Algeria, Lamine Camara took advantage of the CHAN to highlight his technical range.

Considered one of the best hopes of his native country, the Senegalese U20 international would put his qualities to the benefit of FC Metz.

During the tournament, Pape Amadou Diallo also stood out, scoring two goals for the Teranga Lions. The 18-year-old winger, capable of playing on both sides, has often undermined opposing defenses with speed, combined with some skill in dribbling. He too will continue his progress on the banks of the Moselle.

Finally, regularly aligned during the last CHAN, the solid winger Malick Mbaye, also 18 years old, should will also take a step in his career with Metz. In the East of France, the new Metz players will be keen to display their acceleration and other capacities.

Endowed with great international experience at the end of this successful African Nations Championship, Lamine Camara, Papa Amadou Diallo and Malick Mbaye are the next Teranga Lions’ generation
