Edson Mexer, widely recognized as one of the pillars of the Mozambican defense, has been called up by Chiquinho Conde for the national team's upcoming matches against Somalia and Guinea-Conakry, scheduled for June 7th and 10th. This is another chapter in the brilliant career of Mexer, a player who has won the hearts of football fans in Mozambique and beyond.
Mexer Sitoe, or simply Mexer, began his career at Grupo Desportivo de Maputo, one of the country's most historic clubs. In 2006, he started playing for the black and white team, and his outstanding performances quickly caught the attention of many clubs, including in Portugal. In 2009/2010, Sporting Clube de Portugal opened the doors to Mexer's international career.
During the 2011/2012 season, Mexer was loaned to Olhanense, and in the following season, 2012/2013, he went on to represent Nacional da Madeira, where he remained for one season. In 2014/2015, the talented Mozambican defender transitioned to French football, joining Rennes. It was at Rennes that Mexer solidified his reputation, playing until 2019 and helping the club win the French Cup. In the 2019/2020 season, after this achievement, Mexer transferred to Bordeaux, where he played until 2022.
In 2023, Mexer returned to Portuguese football, this time with Estoril Praia, where he played for one season. In 2024, the Mozambican international signed with Bandirmaspor in Turkey, where he currently plays.
Mexer has been a constant presence in the Mozambican national team, and his experience will be crucial in the upcoming games. This Friday, the 7th, the Zimpeto National Stadium will be the stage where the Mambas will face Somalia, and the support of the fans will be fundamental. Like the 12th player, the presence and enthusiasm of the fans can make all the difference for the team.
Therefore, we invite all Mozambicans to come to the Zimpeto National Stadium to support our Mambas. Let's fill the stands and show our passion and unconditional support for our national team. Together, we can create an electrifying atmosphere that will propel our players towards victory. Don't miss this opportunity to be part of history and support our national heroes!
