Who is Saihou Jagne?

Saihou Jagne is a Swedish-Gambian footballer currently playing in Finland for Åland outfit IFK Mariehamn. His nickname, CH, is an approximate Swedish pronunciation spelling of his given name.

Just a few weeks after his sign to AIK, Turkish club Gaziantepspor showed their interest in the young striker, making a bid up to €200,000.

He made his debut for AIK on 30 March 2008 in the first match of the new season as a substitute at Råsunda against Kalmar FF in a match that ended 0-0.

Jagne didn’t score once in the first months of his career at the club but when the team faced Kalmar FF for the second time of the season on 4 August 2008 he scored both goals for AIK in a game that ended 3-2 to Kalmar FF at Fredriksskans.

On 24 September he was substituted in the derby against arch-rivals Djurgårdens IF and scored the equaliser in stoppage time.
