Senegalese Midfielder Loum Joins Sporting Gijón
Agreement Reached After Successful Medical
Sporting Gijón bolstered their squad for the 2025/26 season with the signing of Senegalese midfielder Mamadou Loum Ndiaye. The club announced the deal on Tuesday, August 12th, 2025, confirming Ndiaye's contract runs until 2027.
Ndiaye, 28, brings a wealth of experience to Gijón after a career spanning multiple countries and leagues. His journey began in Senegal before making his way to Portugal, where he played for SC Braga B, Moreirense FC, and FC Porto. He made his La Liga debut with Deportivo Alavés in the 2021/22 season, followed by stints in the English Championship with Reading FC and Saudi Arabia's Al-Raed SFC.
Returning to Portugal last year with FC Arouca, Ndiaye now joins Sporting Gijón after successfully completing a medical examination. The club wasted no time integrating him into their first team squad.
