Abdoul Rachid Moumini also wants to try something new

After turning down all offers during the last summer transfer window, Beninese international Abdoul Rachid Moumini is finally ready for a fresh challenge. The 20-year-old right-back, who has been a standout performer for Ayema FC, is now poised to take the next big step in his career—this time in Europe.

Despite attracting interest from several European clubs, Moumini has chosen a new adventure in Azerbaijan’s top flight. According to exclusive sources close to the negotiations, the young defender is on the verge of signing with FK Sumgayit. The ambitious project presented by club president Riad Rafiyev reportedly played a key role in convincing the Porto-Novo native to make the move.

If all goes smoothly, the deal will be finalized soon, marking a major milestone for Moumini. Having proven himself in Benin’s domestic league, this transfer could be the springboard that propels his career to new heights. Will he shine in Azerbaijan and attract even bigger clubs? The journey begins now.
