Yamoussoukro FC Sign Ghanaian Striker Mory Kamagaté Until 2028

Yamoussoukro FC have completed the signing of Ghanaian forward Mory Kamagaté from Taking Over Academy on a two-year contract running until 2028.

The newly promoted Ivorian Ligue 1 side announced the deal on October 13 as they look to strengthen their squad after a promising start to the 2026/27 season.

Standing at 1.92 metres tall, Kamagaté arrives to provide another option in attack as Yamoussoukro aim to maintain their early momentum in the top flight.

What It Means

The signing gives Yamoussoukro additional depth at centre-forward as they prepare for the challenges of a full season in Côte d’Ivoire’s top division.

For Kamagaté, the move represents an opportunity to take the next step in his development by moving from Ghanaian academy football into a competitive senior league. His physical profile could also give the club another dimension in attack.

Background

Kamagaté joins from Ghana’s Taking Over Academy, with Yamoussoukro securing his services on a deal that runs until 2028.

The club have made an encouraging start following their promotion. According to the figures provided, they collected seven points from their opening three matches, recording two wins and a draw to move to the top of the standings.

Their early form has raised expectations, and adding depth to the forward line is part of their effort to remain competitive throughout the campaign.

What Happens Next

Kamagaté will now look to settle into his new surroundings and compete for a place in Yamoussoukro’s attack. The club will hope his arrival helps them sustain their strong start and establish themselves in Ligue 1.

With his contract running until 2028, both player and club have time to build a longer-term partnership as Yamoussoukro continue their first season back in the Ivorian top flight.
