Abu Kamara

Abu Bakarr Kamara (born 21 July 2003) is an English professional footballer who plays as a right winger for club Portsmouth.

Club career Norwich City Kamara joined the youth academy of Norwich City at the age of ten, and worked his way up their youth categories. In January 2021, he signed his first professional contract with the club until 2023; in October of the same year, he extended his deal until 2025.

On 1 April 2023, Kamara made his professional debut for Norwich, coming on as a substitute for Teemu Pukki in the 70th minute of a 1–0 Championship defeat to Sheffield United.

Portsmouth (loan) On 19 July 2023, Kamara joined EFL League One side Portsmouth on a season-long loan. He scored his first goal for Pompey in their 3–1 home win over Peterborough United on 2 September 2023. This was also Kamara's first goal in senior football.

Following his loan at Portsmouth expiring at the end of the 2023–24 season, Kamara briefly returned to Norwich, scoring his first goal for the Canaries in their EFL Cup tie at home to Stevenage on 13 August 2024.

Hull City A few weeks later, on 30 August 2024, Kamara signed a four-year deal with fellow EFL Championship side Hull City, arriving for an undisclosed fee. Despite the club not making the figure public, it is rumoured that it may have risen as high as £4,500,000 with add-ons included. On 1 January 2025, after losing 1–0 at home to Middlesbrough, Kamara faced backlash for his part in Boro's last-minute winner. Later that day, he received further abuse from Hull supporters online, after he posted celebratory emojis on former club Portsmouth's social media, in reaction to their 4–0 thrashing of Swansea City. Kamara apologised for his actions, but was defended by his head coach Rubén Sellés regardless.

Getafe (loan) On 1 September 2025, Kamara moved abroad for the first time in his career, after agreeing to a one-year loan deal with La Liga side Getafe.

Portsmouth On 10 August 2026, Kamara returned to Portsmouth on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
