Monty Enosa (born 6 February 2004) is a Motswana footballer who currently plays for Botswana Premier League club Masitaoka FC and the Botswana national team.

Club career

As a youth Enosa played for Sebele Young Shooters FC before joining Eleven Angels FC at age ten.[1][2] Despite interest from higher-profile clubs, he decided to remain with Eleven Angels following the club's promotion to the Botswana Premier League following the 2021–22 season, a promotion in which he played a key role.[3][4] His new contract was for two years.[5] At age seventeen he went on to become Angels Eleven FC's youngest first-team scorer.[1]

Earlier in 2022, Enosa was tied as the top scorer in the 2022 Botswana FA Cup with five goals, along with Thato Ogopotse.[6][7] Both players won a P25,000 cash prize.[8]

In January 2023 it was announced that Enosa had traveled to Europe for the month for trials with clubs from Denmark, Sweden, and Belgium.[9][10] After returning to Eleven Angels and appearing in a league fixture at the end of the month, Enosa was expected to sign for a European club "anytime soon" after impressing in Denmark.[11] In total Enosa made eleven league appearances, scoring three goals in his debut season in the top flight.[12]

Despite rumors of an imminent move to Europe, it was announced on 2 February 2023 that Elven Angels FC had reached a transfer agreement for Enosa with fellow-Botswana Premier League club Masitaoka FC. He immediately signed a two-year contract with the club.[12]

International career

Enosa was named to Botswana's squad for the 2020 COSAFA Under-17 Championship in November 2020.[13] He represented Botswana at the youth level again at the 2022 COSAFA U-20 Cup and was named Player of the Match for his performance against Zambia in the final match of the Group Stage.[14] In total he made three appearances in the tournament.[15]

In summer 2022 Enosa was called up for the first time by senior national team manager Mogomotsi Mpote for the 2022 COSAFA Cup at age eighteen.[16][17] He went on to make his senior international debut on 5 July 2022 in a Botswana's opening victory over the Seychelles.[18][19]
