Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. is an Italian brand and manufacturer of luxury sports cars and SUVs based in Sant’Agata Bolognese. The company is owned by the Volkswagen Group through its subsidiary Audi.
Ferruccio Lamborghini (1916–1993), an Italian manufacturing magnate, founded Automobili Ferruccio Lamborghini S.p.A. in 1963 to compete with Ferrari. The company was noted for using a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout. Lamborghini grew rapidly during its first decade, but sales plunged in the wake of the 1973 worldwide financial downturn and the oil crisis. The firm’s ownership changed three times after 1973, including a bankruptcy in 1978. American Chrysler Corporation took control of Lamborghini in 1987 and sold it to Malaysian investment group Mycom Setdco and Indonesian group V’Power Corporation in 1994. In 1998, Mycom Setdco and V’Power sold Lamborghini to the Volkswagen Group where it was placed under the control of the group’s Audi division.
Born in Freetown, Sierra Leone, Turay began playing football on the streets, which led him to be scouted by FC Mattia, who signed him.[3] According to Turay, he said: “one of the club’s coaches gave him bus money so he could go to training. But I ran to training instead. I was small and needed to train to get stronger. I took the money and bought food for the family.”[3] His performance attracted by Academie Sante Marie De Dixinn (an academy based in Guinea), who scouted and offered him a contract, but FC Mattia refused.[3] Turay, once again, was scouted by Academy Director Numukeh Tunkara, who then took him to Sweden for a trial.[3] Initially, his trial at Vasalunds wasn’t a positive one, as the club’s management felt he wasn’t good enough.[3] As a result, Turay travelled to Nigeria to have another trial.[3] But Patrick Mörk, an agent, was aware of his talent and contacted Juventus IF to sign him, leading an extension of his tourist visa, so he can play in Sweden.[3] When Turay first arrived in Sweden, he struggled in the country with no food to eat and had to rely from his agent to drive him anywhere he went.[4] Despite this, Turay quickly made an impact in the club, scoring twenty goals in eleven matches at the end of the 2013 season.[3][5] This resulted in him seeing interest from clubs such as Standard Liège, Gefle IF and Assyriska.[6] The 2014 season saw Turay continuing to make an impact, making fourteen appearances and scoring twelve times.[7] Throughout his time at Juventus IF, he went on to make twenty–five appearances and scoring thirty–two times.[8][9]
In August 2014, Turay joined Västerås SK.[3][10] However, the move was disputed as there was a disagreement between Juventus IF and Västerås SK over the transfer move.[3] As a result, the agreement resulted in him joining the club on loan, though Västerås SK sports manager Ado Sadzak opinioned that the loan agreement should not have existed as it’s not possible to loan a player when they have no contract.[11] He quickly made an impact for the club against Östersunds FK in Svenska Cupen on 20 August 2014 and scored twice in a 3–1 win.[12] Turay went on to score four more goals, coming between 4 October 2014 and 18 October 2014.[13] With his playing time coming from the substitute bench by the time 2014 season ended, he went on to make nine appearances and scoring six times in all competitions for Västerås SK.[14] Following this, Turay left Västerås SK
