Swedish giants Malmö FF have signed highly rated 18-year-old Ghanaian starlet Yassin Mohammed in a landmark move that adds an influential piece to the club’s long-term strategy for youth development.
The teenage striker, who remained with Malmö’s U19 side throughout an extended trial period, earned a permanent deal after showcasing standout form and edging out competition from other interested clubs.
Born and raised in Ghana, Mohammed impressed Malmö’s scouting team with his agility, positional awareness, and natural attacking instincts.
Final approval for the signing came after he consistently demonstrated versatility and strong performance during training sessions with the team.
“Yassin is a talented striker who our chief scout, Jeffrey Aubynn, discovered during a trip to Ghana,” said Malmö’s assistant sporting director, Ola Toivonen. “We believe he has excellent timing in his runs and possesses significant development potential within our system.”
The club announced that Mohammed will initially join the P19 (U19) squad, where he will continue his development under formal coaching and close supervision.
This move highlights Malmö’s continued focus on developing global talent, particularly from Africa—a region that has already produced several high-profile additions to the club’s roster through successful scouting missions.
