FCSB have been looking for a back-up striker for Andrea Compagno this summer, with Mamadou Thiam one of the options wanted by boss Gigi Becali. After the University of Cluj refused the offer of the vice-champion, the Transylvanians transferred him to the team from Kuwait.
Mamadou Thiam has signed a contract with Al-Arabi Sports Club
Mamadou Thiam arrived in the summer of 2022 at the University of Cluj, brought in without a contract after parting ways with the Belgians from Oostende.
The 28-year-old has developed well under Yoan Ovidiu Sabau and was one of the team’s most important players in the recently concluded season behind Aleksandr Chipcu.
Mamadou Thiama was wanted by FCSB this summer, but the Romanian vice-champions failed to reach an agreement with the University of Cluj over a definitive transfer.
In 33 matches for Cluj University, Thiam scored 11 goals.
The Transylvanians received an offer from Kuwait, and on Monday announced the parting with the forward for 700,000 euros, according to Transfermarkt
“Thank you, Mamadou Thiam!
FC “University of Cluj” has agreed with the club “Al-Arabi” from Kuwait on the transfer of Mamadou Thiam (28 years old).
Mamadou Thiam arrived at U in September last year. In total, in the 2022/2023 season, the Senegalese forward played 33 matches for our team, scoring 11 goals in all tournaments.
Our club thanks him for his work at “U” and wishes him success in the future!” – says the club’s official press release.
