MONROVIA – Serbian powerhouse Red Star Belgrade has officially confirmed its participation in the 2026 U19 Elite Scouting Tournament scheduled to take place in Liberia from March 2–5 at the Samuel Kanyon Doe (SKD) Sports Complex. Seeking to address that gap, entrepreneur Emma Jarnyneh is stepping into the football space this March with the launch of the U19 Elite Scouting Tournament. Organizers say the tournament is expected to attract scouts from several European clubs, including Chelsea FC, further boosting the event’s profile. With Red Star Belgrade’s confirmation and interest from additional European clubs, the tournament is shaping up to be one of the most high-profile youth scouting events hosted in Liberia in recent years. For Liberia’s U19 prospects, March could present more than just a tournament it may be the beginning of international careers.
