Alasana Manneh, born on 8 April 1998 (age 28), is a Gambian central midfielder now with Hibernian. His route into senior football was shaped by early loan spells, the sort of practical education young midfielders often need: less polish, more minutes, and fewer hiding places.
Those formative moves gave him a platform before he settled into more regular football at Gornik Zabrze. His best league return came there in 2020-2021, when he scored three goals in 27 appearances. For a midfielder rather than a forward, that was useful enough without requiring anyone to get carried away.
At Hibernian, where he wears the number 8 shirt, Manneh has been on the fringes in 2025-2026, making one league appearance without scoring. He has been more active internationally this season, with four appearances for Gambia in African World Cup qualifying.
His current market value is around £383,000, according to Transfermarkt. Manneh’s career to date has been that of an established professional midfielder, built through loan football, a productive spell in Poland, and a current role at Hibs.
