Official Cagliari Announcement

Cagliari Football Club is pleased to announce the signing of Alieu Fadera. The player arrives on loan from Como until the end of the 2026-27 season, with a purchase option.

Born in 2001, Fadera is from Bakau, Gambia. He began his football career at Real de Banjul, quickly rising to the senior team. In March 2020, he moved to Europe, joining Pohronie in the Slovak top division; he made 22 league appearances and scored 5 goals in the 2020-21 season.

In summer 2021, he transferred to Zulte Waregem, starting his career in the Belgian league. He played a total of 58 matches across all competitions over two seasons, contributing 9 goals and 8 assists. These performances earned him a transfer to Genk in summer 2023. At Genk, he also competed in European competitions: in the 2023-24 season, he made 35 appearances in the league, domestic cup, and UEFA competitions, scoring 3 goals and providing 4 assists.

In August 2024, Como signed him, and he made his Serie A debut on September 1 against Udinese. Weeks later, he scored his first Serie A goal, helping his team to a 3-2 away victory over Atalanta. In his first season in Italy, he made 28 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 4 assists.

In summer 2025, he joined Sassuolo on loan; he made 28 Serie A appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 1 assist, including a winning goal in a home victory against Lazio.

As a Gambian international, Fadera is a winger with remarkable pace and strong ball-carrying ability. He is right-footed and can play on both flanks, preferring the left wing; on the left, he can attack defenders, cut inside to use his stronger foot for finishing, and also make runs behind the defense to exploit space in depth. His speed, one-on-one ability, and talent for finding gaps make him extremely dangerous in attacking situations.

Welcome to Cagliari, Alieu!
