Liberia’s right-back Solomon Grimes plying his trade with Cyprians top flight for Nea Salamis is targeting European slot at the end of their league season next month.

The club is position 2nd on the log with 40 points collected so far. With four matches in the championship playoff. They are five points behind table controller AEK Larnaca that is holding 45 points.

Nea Salamis defeated league leader AEK Larnaca 2-1 on Saturday April 7th during an away fixture, the three points collected away has reduced the opening.

Grimes landed in Cyprus last year after he turned down offered from Greek club Ethinkos that wanted his to renew his contract at the end of last season and the Liberian has capped twenty official league matches this season due to injury he sustained during the season.

The defender has been a regular leg for Liberia national team since his departure from local football and has gained total control of Lone Star right-back. Solomon Grimes won the position from former Lone Star right-back Fallah Johnson that was recently released from prison in Thailand
