Nuha Marong Krubally (born 16 June 1993) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for Atlético Baleares in the Segunda Federación.[1] Born in Spain, he plays for the Gambia national team.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Santa Coloma de Farners, Girona, Catalonia to Gambian parents, Nuha represented CE Farners [ca], CD Blanes, Penya Barcelonista de Lloret and CF Lloret as a youth.[2] He made his senior debut with the latter during the 2011–12 season, in the regional leagues.

On 26 June 2013, Nuha joined Segunda División B side UE Llagostera.[3] He was sparingly used during the campaign, but notably scored the winner in a 3–1 home defeat of Gimnàstic de Tarragona in the play-offs, which ensured his team's first-ever promotion to Segunda División.[4]

Nuha subsequently served loan stints at Tercera División sides UE Sant Andreu[5] and Elche CF Ilicitano,[6] scoring a career-best 21 goals for the latter. On 13 July 2016 he moved to another reserve team, CA Osasuna B in the third division.[7]

On 24 June 2017, Nuha signed for Atlético Saguntino still in the third division.[8] The following 17 May, he joined CD Castellón for the fourth tier play-offs,[9] and subsequently agreed to a deal with CD Atlético Baleares on 6 July.[10]

On 9 July 2019, Nuha agreed to a four-year deal with Racing de Santander, newly promoted to Segunda División.[11] On 9 January 2020 he was signed by Granada CF, which first sent him to the reserve team, Club Recreativo Granada.[12]

In 2022, Nuha signed with Bangladeshi outfit Bashundhara Kings. On 18 May, he helped the team winning their 2022 AFC Cup group stage opener with 1–0 margin against Maldivian side Maziya S&RC at the Salt Lake Stadium.

On 29 August 2022, Marong moved to India, signing with I-League side Rajasthan United on a season-long deal.[13][14] He was part of the team's Baji Rout Cup win in Odisha. In January 2023, Morang parted ways with the club.[15]

International career

[edit]

Nuha has been called up for the Gambia national team on 6 February 2019.[16] He made his debut for the latter on 22 March, in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Algeria.[17]
