Timeline

1975

Mohammed Gargo (born 19 June 1975) is a Ghanaian former professional footballer who played as a defender.

1991

Gargo's performances at the 1991 FIFA U-17 World Championship brought him to the notice of European clubs' scouts.

He had initially agreed to join Bayer 04 Leverkusen alongside fellow Ghana national under-17 football team member Sebastian Barnes.

However Leverkusen withdrew from the Gargo transfer when it became evident that they could not compete financially with a much larger offer from Torino.

In October 1991 a payment of 100,000,000 Italian lira to Gargo's parents secured his move to Turin, where he was joined by his national under-17 team colleagues Samuel Kuffour and Emmanuel Duah.

Torino's president Gian Mauro Borsano planned fake employment for the three players as "messengers" in his construction company until they were 18 years old and eligible to be registered as professional footballers.

The plan was controversial and the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) refused to register the Ghanaian players as either amateurs or professionals.

FIGC president Antonio Matarrese compared the situation to the trafficking of children.

Although Gargo and his father emphasised that they were happy with the arrangements in Turin, the football authorities retained their opposition.

1992

An appeal by Torino and Gargo to Confederation of African Football (CAF) was thrown out in October 1992, by which time Kuffour and Duah had already left the club.

CAF president Issa Hayatou was particularly hostile to Dominico Ricci, whose African Football Management agency had brokered the transfers.

Gargo was a member of the men's national team that won the bronze medal at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, and gold in the 1991 FIFA U-17 World Championship in Italy.

1993

During the 1993–94 season, Gargo spent time at Borussia Dortmund, where his cousin Ibrahim Tanko already played.

He was restricted to the club's Amateure team in the Oberliga Westfalen, and when Dortmund tried to buy him outright Torino declined the transfer fee on offer.

1994

In November 1994 Giovanni Trapattoni took Gargo to Bayern Munich.

He suffered the same fate he had at Dortmund and was unable to conclude a transfer.

In May 1994 Gargo had appeared for Torino in a non-competitive game against rivals Juventus.

The "Memorial Giorgio Calleri" fixture was staged in Novara and was marred by poor attendance and hooliganism.

Gargo was subjected to racist chanting, while Torino supporters mocked the recent death of Andrea Fortunato.

Gargo scored in a 2–2 draw before Torino lost the penalty shootout.

Despite his three years of inactivity, Gargo maintained ambitions of playing competitively for Torino.

However he was not favoured by the club's incoming president Gianmarco Calleri.

1995

Gargo joined Stoke City as a pre-season trialist ahead of their 1995–96 campaign.

After fielding him in a friendly match with Stockport County, Stoke's manager Lou Macari was impressed with Gargo's potential.

However, Macari was less impressed with Gargo's poor attendance record and sudden unexplained departure, which took place shortly afterwards.

Increasingly unhappy at his lack of competitive football, Gargo then joined Italian team Udinese in October 1995.

1996

After a further year of inactivity, Gargo was allowed to register with Udinese before their 1996–97 season.

He transferred to Udinese on a free transfer, on the expiry of his five-year contract with Torino.

Real Tamale United remained entitled to a sell-on fee and Gargo gave his former club a promissory note for $20,000 so they did not dispute his transfer to Udinese.

In Alberto Zaccheroni's progressive 3–4–3 formation, Gargo was usually deployed in defence, but was also capable of playing in midfield.

1997

The team performed above expectations although Gargo sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury in a 4–0 defeat at Sampdoria on 18 May 1997.

With Udinese Gargo came to be recognised as a competent Serie A central defender, although troubled by frequent injuries.

2001

With his contract due to expire in 2001, he was linked with transfers to Inter Milan, and even an improbable return to Torino.

2003

In January 2003 he was loaned to Venezia and in January 2004 sold to Serie B side Genoa along with Vittorio Micolucci, in exchange for Rodrigue Boisfer and Valon Behrami, all in a co-ownership deal, which few years later accused for inflated price in order to create paper profit.

2008

Udinese and Genoa were already fined in June 2008 by FIGC and criminal charge were continued.

2010

Gargo started after his retirement the job as coach in February 2010 by New Edubiase United.

He trained the club of the Poly Tank Division One League until summer 2010.

On 6 August 2010, he was named as the new manager of Poly Tank Division One League rival Real Tamale United.

2012

He coached the club RTU until November 2012 and resigned after the relegation from the Ghana Premier League his contract.

2013

In 2013 Gargo claimed that he had refused an approach to play for Ghana at the 2006 FIFA Women's World Cup, the first time the nation had qualified, after being asked to pay a bribe.
