On 30 July 2024, Mohammed scored the opener in a 2–0 victory for Dundee B over Highland League side Formartine United in the Scottish Challenge Cup.[13] On 13 September, Mohammed returned on loan to Forfar Athletic until January 2025.[14][15] He made his 2nd debut for the Loons off the bench away to The Spartans in the league.[16] After a short spell, Mohammed left Forfar on 8 November and immediately joined Lowland League club Berwick Rangers on loan until January.[17][18] He made his debut for the Borderers on 9 November, starting in a home league win over Albion Rovers.[19] The following week, Mohammed scored his first goal for Berwick in an East of Scotland Qualifying Cup victory over Armadale Thistle.[20]
