Ousman Marong (born 21 June 1999) is a Gambian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Sileks in the Macedonian First Football League.[1]

Club career

Born in Kololi, Marong started playing in Gambia at the Superstars Academy. They sent him on loan to Israeli club Beitar Nes Tubruk where he made 24 appearances and scored 9 goals in the 2017–18 Israeli youth league.[2]

In the winter-break of the 2018–19 season, he signed with Serbian club Trayal Kruševac[3] along his compatriot Lamin Jobe.[4] Marong adapted immediately in Serbia, contributing with 6 goals in 14 appearances in the second-half of the season. His performances called the attention of bigger clubs, and by June there were rumors he was going to sign with current Serbian champions, Red Star Belgrade.[5]

International career

Before arriving to Serbia, Marong had already been member of the Gambian U-23 national team.[6]
