L’Ashanti Golden Boys de Siguiri frappe un grand coup sur le marché des transferts. La SAG a annoncé, ce mardi 4 août 2026, la signature d’Aboubacar Demba Sylla, solide défenseur central surnommé « Le Roc », en provenance de l’AS Kaloum.
Joueur d’expérience, reconnu pour son impact physique, sa rigueur défensive et son sens de l’anticipation, Aboubacar Demba Sylla quitte le Gbin Gbin So pour relever un nouveau défi sous les couleurs du club de Siguiri. Selon les informations communiquées par la SAG, le joueur a paraphé un contrat de deux ans.
Ce recrutement illustre les ambitions affichées par le club jaune et noir à l’approche de la nouvelle saison de Ligue 1 Guicopres. Avec l’arrivée d’un défenseur de son calibre, la formation de Siguiri entend renforcer sa solidité défensive et jouer les premiers rôles.
Dans son communiqué officiel, la direction de la SAG a salué l’arrivée de sa nouvelle recrue :

Referees confirmed for Boks, All Blacks Tests
The referees for the highly-anticipated Test series between the Springboks and All Blacks in South Africa later this month and in early September have been announced.
The 2019 and 2023 world champions take on the 2011 and 2015 World Cup winners, New Zealand, in four Tests in the coming weeks – at Ellis Park, Cape Town Stadium, and FNB Stadium, with the fourth Test taking place in Baltimore, USA.
The touring All Blacks also face all four of the South African United Rugby Championship teams, starting with the Stormers in Cape Town this weekend. They then face the Sharks in Durban, the Bulls in Pretoria and the Lions in Joburg.
World Rugby on Tuesday revealed the referees who’ll take charge of the four Tests between the Boks and All Blacks.
Matthew Carley of England will handle the first Test at Ellis Park on 22 August, while Nika Amashukeli of Georgia will take charge of the second Test in Cape Town on 29 August.
Angus Gardner of Australia will referee the third Test of Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry series at the FNB Stadium on 5 September, while Karl Dickson of England will then take charge of the fourth Test at the M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, USA, on 12 September.
The four men will also officiate the other four matches on the All Blacks’ tour of South Africa against the Stormers, Sharks, Bulls and Lions.
Dickson is believed to be in line to handle this Friday’s game against the Stormers.
Vihiga Cranes, Terem, Musokoto crowned Busia champions in Safaricom Chapa Dimba
NAIROBI, Kenya, August 4, 2026 – Busia’s Chakol Queens successfully defended their county title for the second consecutive time after edging out Falcon Queens 1-0 in the Busia County final played at Malaba Primary School.
In the boys’ contest, visitors Musokoto Secondary School from Nambale Constituency silenced home side Malaba Homeboys in a highly spirited encounter at the same venue.
John Onyango opened the scoring for the visitors in the fourth minute to put his side in front.
Malaba Homeboys pushed for an equaliser but were unable to find a way through before Sanchez Omondi sealed the victory for Musokoto FC with a late strike to make it 2-0 and send the home side packing.
“I am happy to have retained the title for the second consecutive time. As you know, it is not easy to retain a title, especially with the tough competition at the grassroots level. The game was tough. We are used to playing the ball on the ground, while our opponents preferred aerial balls, which took us some time to adjust to. However, after studying their game, we decided to keep possession and capitalise on the opportunities we created to beat them,” Chakol head coach Abraham Muleme said.
Elsewhere, last year’s regional champions Brenda Girls and Ebwali Boys failed to make it to the regional finals after being knocked out.
Brenda Girls were eliminated in the playoffs at Bungoma High School Grounds, while Vihiga’s Ebwali Boys narrowly fell 1-0 to Coach Francis Muhambe’s Vihiga Cranes in a tightly contested encounter, handing the Cranes the Vihiga County title.
Still in Vihiga, Maroon Queens fell 2-0 to Blue Commandos, with both goals scored by Victoria Nekesa, as the new entrants booked their place in the regional finals.
In Bungoma County, Elgon Queens from Mt. Elgon were crowned the new champions after defeating St. Augustine Girls Lukhuna 5-4 on penalties after 1-1 draw in the girls’ final.
In the boys’ category, Terem FC booked their place in the regional finals after edging out Misikhu Friends School 5-3 on penalties following a barren draw in regular time.
“We came prepared for this game. After watching our opponents play in yesterday’s playoffs, we knew it wasn’t going to be a walk in the park. Although we had hoped to win in regular time, that didn’t happen. However, I am happy my boys showed great composure during the penalty shootout and converted all our spot-kicks to win the title. From here, we now embark on preparations for the regional finals, as we know it is going to be tough. My aim is to reach the national finals and have some of my players make the All-Star Team that will travel to Sweden for the Gothia Cup,” Terem FC head coach Evans Kimungui said.
The winners from the three counties will be joined by the Kakamega County champions, whose finals are scheduled for the coming weekend on August 8-9 at Bukhungu Stadium.
“It has always been my wish and prayer to participate in Chapa Dimba. Today, I am glad that I am not just participating but also showcasing my talent to the world through this well-organised platform. I am happy with the win, and I want to assure our fans that as we head to the regional finals, we will not let them down,” Terem FC captain Owen Kiprop said.
The winning boys’ and girls’ teams were each awarded KES 75,000, while the runners-up received KES 30,000.
The Best Goalkeeper, Top Scorer and Most Valuable Player (MVP) in each category took home KES 10,000.
In addition, the MVPs will receive fully funded tertiary education scholarships under the Safaricom Citizens of the Future Programme.
Centrafrique: l'épidémie de choléra continue de susciter l’inquiétude
Depuis la déclaration officielle d'une épidémie de choléra en Centrafrique le 26 juin dernier, plus de 700 cas de la maladie ont été recensés, avec une quarantaine de décès. Si le gouvernement affirme que la situation est sous contrôle, la population reste en état d’alerte. Le manque d’accès à l’eau potable, les faibles conditions d’assainissement et les déplacements de populations continuent de favoriser la propagation de la bactérie.
