Senegalese midfielder Mamadou Lamine Camara has completed a move from RS Berkane to Libyan side Al-Ittihad Tripoli, marking the end of a five-season spell in Morocco.
Camara’s transfer comes after two previously unsuccessful attempts to move abroad. A proposed switch to Stoke City in England fell through, followed by a failed deal with Libyan club Al Ahli Tripoli.
Al Ahli Tripoli later clarified the collapse of that deal, stating that “all procedures were carried out in accordance with the law.”
During his time with RS Berkane, Camara established himself as a key player. He helped the club secure two CAF Confederation Cup titles and a Moroccan league championship, contributing both goals and leadership from midfield.
His performances earned him recognition across African club football and made him one of the standout Senegalese exports in the Moroccan league.
The transfer to Al-Ittihad Tripoli represents a new chapter in Camara’s career. Reports indicate that the Libyan club paid a fee of around $2.5 million for the 26-year-old midfielder.
His move strengthens the Tripoli-based side as they aim to compete at the top of the Libyan first division.
Camara’s departure signals a significant change for RS Berkane, which will now look to adjust its midfield options ahead of the upcoming season.
For the player, the move offers an opportunity to experience a new league and continue building his reputation in North African football.
The deal was confirmed this week, ending months of speculation about Camara’s next destination.
Fans of RS Berkane will remember him for his contributions to the club’s continental and domestic successes, while supporters in Libya will hope he can replicate that form at Al-Ittihad Tripoli.
