Ghanaian teenager Israel Anum made his senior debut for Swedish giants Malmo FF on Tuesday when the team locked horns with Norwegian outfit Odds BK in a friendly match.
The defender signed a deal to join the club's U19 side from the Right to Dream Academy in August 2024.
Last season, he worked hard and continued his development in hopes of making the first team squad for the next football season.
Included to be part of the Malmo FF squad for pre-season, Israel Anum has finally gotten his chance. He started for the club on Tuesday in their second pre-season match against Odds BK and made a good account of himself.
