Abdoulaye Gueye (born 11 August 2003) is an Italian and Senegal professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Fc Wacker Innsbruck.
Gueye was born in Brescia, Italy, to Senegalese parents.[2]
Gueye began his footballing career as an outfield player with Leonessa Calcio in his native Italy, before playing in goal at under-12 level for Mario Rigamonti Calcio.[2] He later moved to Munich, Germany, where he failed to find a club for a year before settling at SC München, where he again played outfield.[2] He played as a striker for Stern München for two years, before spending a season at SV Aubing.[2]
In 2020, he trialled with SV Planegg-Krailling as a goalkeeper, and after signing, became the team's first choice goalkeeper at under-19 level.[2] The following year, he was selected to be part of the FC Bayern Munich World Squad initiative - a squad to represent the Bavarian club in international friendlies, stating that he found the opportunity to be "unbelievable".[1] [2] [3]
On his return to club football, Planegg-Krailling wanted to integrate Gueye into the club's first team, but he was advised to join semi-professional side TSV Landsberg, which he did in 2022.[2] He made his debut for the club in a 6–5 penalty shoot out Bavarian Cup win against TSV Schwaben Augsburg on 26 July 2022.[4]
Following the early retirement of TSV Landsberg goalkeeper David Hundertmark, Gueye was promoted to first-choice goalkeeper, to fight for the position alongside new signing Fabio Rašić.[5] He was given a run in the first team, playing five games in March and April 2023.
