A familiar face has returned to the flanks for Cavalry FC.
Fleet-footed winger Goteh Ntignee has returned to the Canadian Premier League side on a contract guaranteed through the 2027 season, with a club option for 2028, after parts of two seasons with FC Annecy in France’s Ligue 2.
“We are delighted to welcome Goteh back to the club,” said Cavs head coach and GM Tommy Wheeldon Jr., in a team release. “He is a dynamic and skilled attacking player that can cause issues for any defense in this league.
“I’m sure our fans will be excited to see him in the Cavalry jersey once again.”
Ntignee, who grew up in Coaldale and developed through the Calgary Minor Soccer Association, starred for the Cavs during the 2022 and 2023 seasons where he made 20 appearances.
His transfer to FC Annecy in summer 2023 was a CPL league-record at the time.
“I’m very happy to be back at the club,” said Ntignee. “I’m very hungry to win games and can’t wait to get started with the squad.”
The 23-year-old attacker will be eligible to appear for the Cavs at the outset of the secondary transfer window’s opening on July 24, the club added.
Cavalry FC is back on the pitch on July 20 in Winnipeg for a clash with Valour FC at 1 p.m. The match will be televised on TSN and streamed through the OneSoccer platform.
The Cavs, fresh off a goalless draw at Vancouver FC last weekend, are looking to snap a two-game winless streak and sit fourth in the league table with a 6-4-3 record.
The next home date at Spruce Meadows' ATCO Field is July 26 at 3 p.m. versus York United.
