Career

Mohamed Kallon started his career with the Sierra Leonean club Old Edwardians , before he moved to Tadamon Sur Club in Lebanon and to Spånga IS in Sweden as a teenager . For the 1995/96 season moved Kallon on loan to Switzerland for FC Lugano in the National League A . Previously, at the age of 16, he signed a 7-year contract with Inter Milan . The club loaned him to six different clubs in the years that followed before making the Inter roster. So Kallon moved to the 1997/98 season for FC Bologna in the Italian Serie A , but here he was unable to assert himself. That is why he switched to Serie B for CFC Genoa in the same season . In Genoa he made the leap into the regular formation and scored a total of ten goals.

At the end of the season Kallon returned to Serie A to Cagliari Calcio . Here he was able to assert himself for the first time in the highest Italian league. In the following two seasons, he then played for Reggina Calcio and Vicenza Calcio , where he was part of the regular formation and was able to register regularly in the scorers list. Because of his goals, Kallon recommended himself for his actual club Inter Milan . Here he benefited from an injury to star striker Ronaldo and he was regularly used in his first season. In the two following seasons, however, he hardly played, the aspiring Obafemi Martins was usually preferred. On September 27, 2003, Kallon tested positive for the doping agent nandrolone , after which he was banned for six months.

For the 2004/05 season he then moved to AS Monaco . In his first season in Monaco he was a regular player and scored eleven goals. Nevertheless, Kallon was loaned to the Saudi club Al-Ittihad for the 2005/06 season. He helped Al-Ittihad to win the AFC Champions League with his goals . For the 2006/07 season Kallon returned to the Monaco squad. In August 2007, his contract in Monaco was terminated. In November 2007, he signed a preliminary contract with the Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal , but the transfer was not carried out. In January 2008 he moved to the Greek top club AEK Athens, but was dismissed at the end of the season and moved to Al Shabab in the United Arab Emirates . After a short stint in his home country Sierra Leone at his own club, FC Kallon , he played for the Chinese club Shaanxi Chanba from 2010 , 2011 for Chirag United and then until 2016 again for FC Kallon.
