Freetown \u2014 Swedish premier league giant, Trelleborg have completed the signing of Sierra Leone international, David Simbo from Motala FF.<\/p>\n

The defender, who recently went on a week-long trial with the premier league club, has signed a short term deal till the end of the season with a possible extension to three years based on performance. The 21-year-old Leone Stars defender, who can play both center and right-back, while he thrives on the central midfield, believes he can settle well in his new club.<\/p>\n

In an exclusive interview with Concord Sports, the former Mighty Blackpool defender said he was exited for the move because he had been very eager to join the Swedish top division club after his week’s trial.<\/p>\n

“It is exciting for me to join Trelleborg, I hope for the best and just hope to do my job and see how it will go for me at the end of the season,” Simbo said.<\/p>\n

“I can’t wait to play alongside my countryman Ibrahim Marcel Koroma. I hope we both play in the midfield but it depends on how the coach wants us to play but I am looking forward to playing alongside with him.”<\/p>\n

Sierra Leonean players like Mohamed Poborsky and Ibrahim Teteh Bangura have taken the step to the top Swedish league via a stopover in Swedish clubs in the lower ranges and Simbo has become the latest to play in the top flight.<\/p>\n
