Overwhelmed with emotion, Jallow said;

I’m happy, and I’m so excited to return to playing football again. It was so frustrating because I’ve sat for two years without playing football.

She stressed that;

The GFf have been supporting me throughout my recovery. If I returned to playing football is thanks to the GFF, and I would forever be grateful to them.”

Affectionately known as Isatou Basse within her circle, a nod to her hometown Basse, she also extended her gratitude to fellow Gambia internationals Musa Barrow and Omar Colley.

I’m sure Musa Barrow and Omar Colley would be very glad when they see that I have signed a contract. They, too, have contributed to my surgery and recovery. I know they will be happy to see me return to playing football again,” she said.

Maintaining a deep sense of loyalty, Jallow acknowledged the foundational role played by her local club, Police FC.

My local club Police FC made me what am today and I must thank the team and management for the continued support during the course of my career,” Jallow expressed with sincerity.
