From Liverpool and Man City to Somalia: Jarma Mohamed's unique football journey

Jarma Mohamed has gone from playing for academies like Liverpool and Manchester City to non-league football with Jersey Bulls and representing Somalia internationally.

Jarma Mohamed began his career in the academies of Everton, Liverpool, and Manchester City before joining Wigan and later playing in non-league football. After being discovered on a football networking app, he joined the amateur club Jersey Bulls and works as a youth coach. Thanks to his Somalian heritage, Mohamed earned a historic international call-up and made his debut for Somalia in March. He has since been recalled for Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, capping an unusual and rapid rise in his football career.
