Teuma, age 28, has already collected 17 caps since becoming eligible to represent Malta. He made his debut on September 3, 2020, in the 3-2 defeat against Faroe Islands in the latest edition of the Nations League.

In Torshavn, Teuma had played just 11 minutes but since then he has become one of the regular starters for Mangia.

His performances drew the plaudits of the general public, becoming also one of the fan favourites due to his technical quality that has upgraded the level of Malta’s midfield department.

At club level, Teuma is doing wonders as well as he is the captain of current Belgium top-flight leaders Royal Union St Gilloise (RUSG).

RUSG clinched promotion to Belgium’s Jupiler Pro League last season after almost 50 years and they have taken this year’s campaign by a storm with 31 points after 14 games. Champions League participants Club Brugge and Royal Antwerp, who are in this season’s Europa League, follow with 23 points.
