Mahamadou Susoho Sissoho (born 20 January 2005) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Premier League club Manchester City. He has represented Spain and England at youth level.[2]
Muhamadou was born in Spain to Gambian parents, and moved to Bradford with them at the age of eleven. [1] He is fluent in Catalan.[3]
He joined the Manchester City academy in 2017 from Espanyol.[4] He signed his first professional contract with the club in July 2022.[5]
Promoted to the Man City U21 side for the 2023-24 season, he represented the club in the EFL Trophy in the latter half of 2023.[6]
He was included in the Man City first team squad on 13 December 2023, and after being named as a substitute for a UEFA Champions League tie against Red Star Belgrade, he came on in the second half for his senior debut in a 3–2 away win.[7] He was included in the Manchester City squad that travelled to Saudi Arabia to play in the 2023 FIFA Club World Cup, but never featured in any of the two games his team played.[8]
On 6 August 2024, Susoho joined League One club Peterborough United on a season-long loan deal.[9] Following just one appearance, Susoho returned to his parent club having injured himself in the warm-up of an EFL Cup tie against Oxford United, a serious muscle injury expected to rule him out for a period of four months.[10]
