'They will shine brighter' - Sowe backs Gambia's Tamba twins for top clubs abroad

Gambia women's head coach Mariama Sowe believes the Tamba sisters - Adama and Awa - will excel if they earn transfers top clubs abroad in the coming years.

The twins featured in Gambia's 2012 U17 Women's World Cup outing in Azerbaijan and were part of the Scorpions campaign at the Wafu ‘A’ Women’s Cup in Sierra Leone last March.

The sisters play for Gambia's Red Scorpions, with Awa a midfielder, and Tamba a striker boasting a record 165 league goals in 114 games and 18 strikes in 12 outings for the country.

And an upbeat Sowe, who handled the duo during their U17 World Cup campaign eight years ago, insists the sisters will be a huge bargain for potential clubs overseas.
