TJAY SIGNS FOR OFK BELGRADE

04-06-2026

Lincoln Red Imps FC is delighted to announce the permanent transfer of Tjay De Barr to OFK Beograd for a historic undisclosed fee.

Tjay departs the Club following an outstanding spell in red and black, during which he played a pivotal role in some of the most successful seasons in Lincoln's history. His commitment, professionalism and dedication have been exemplary throughout his time at the Club, both on and off the pitch.

His contributions have helped deliver numerous achievements and create unforgettable memories for supporters, while also serving as an inspiration to aspiring footballers across Gibraltar.

This move to OFK Beograd marks an exciting new chapter in Tjay’s career, providing him with the opportunity to continue his development and test himself in a new footballing environment.

Reflecting on his departure, Tjay said:

“Lincoln is everything to me. It’s been my club since I first started playing football, and it will remain so long after I’ve finished playing. My plan was always to stay at Lincoln until I could no longer kick a ball, but sometimes opportunities come along that you simply have to take, and this is definitely one of those moments.

“What I can say for sure is that I will always be indebted to Lincoln because, through my hardest moments in football, the Club has always been there for me. It has always been my home.

“We’ve won it all together. A Lincoln boy reaching European football is something special, but doing it alongside the people I love made it even more meaningful. Sharing the pitch and this journey with not only a great team but also my best friends has been incredible. One of my proudest achievements was sharing the pitch with Lee Casciaro, the person I’ve looked up to most in football. Thank you for everything you have given us younger players, Gibraltar football and the Lincoln family.

“I wish everyone at Lincoln continued success. There are still greater heights for the Club to reach, and it continues to move in the right direction. Thank you to all my teammates, the technical staff and the fans for everything. I wish you all the very best.”

Lincoln Red Imps FC President, Dylan Viagas, said:

“Tjay has been an exceptional ambassador for our Club and for Gibraltarian football. We are immensely proud of everything he has achieved during his time with us, and we believe this transfer is a well-deserved opportunity for him to continue his career at a higher level.

“While we are naturally disappointed to see him leave, we are equally proud to have played a part in his development and look forward to following his progress in Serbia.”

Everyone at Lincoln Red Imps FC would like to thank Tjay for his dedication, hard work and outstanding contribution to the Club. We wish him every success in the next stage of his career with OFK Beograd.

Once a Red Imp, always a Red Imp.
