Samson Malomo, the captain and key midfielder of Shooting Stars, has officially signed with Albanian club KF Bylis, marking a significant move in his football career. This transition to European football comes after Malomo’s contract with Shooting Stars expired at the end of the 2023-24 season.
Malomo played a crucial role in the Shooting Stars’ successes, including their promotion back to the Nigerian Premier Football League NPFL in the 2021-22 season. Last season, his impressive performances scoring seven goals and providing four assists earned him a two year contract with KF Bylis.
In their announcement, Shooting Stars praised Malomo for his leadership and contributions over the years. The club expressed pride in his achievements and wished him success as he embarks on his new journey in Albania.
Malomo’s career began at Joy Cometh FC, and he has since established himself as a vital figure in Nigerian football. Both Shooting Stars and their fans will be closely watching his progress in Europe.
