Cameroon‑French centre-back Joyskim Dawa of Romanian side FCSB is being linked with a summer switch to Turkish Süper Lig club Çaykur Rizespor as speculation grows over his future in Bucharest.
The 30-year-old defender, who is listed with a market value of €1.80m, is the subject of interest from Rizespor according to transfer data logged on 28 June 2026. The reported probability of a move is currently marked as “?”, underlining that talks remain at an exploratory stage rather than an advanced negotiation.
Dawa’s contractual situation at FCSB is unclear, with no expiry date recorded, prompting suggestions he could yet be allowed to leave at low cost or even approach free‑agent status if no extension is agreed. That uncertainty has encouraged Rizespor, who are looking to reinforce their back line ahead of the new Süper Lig campaign.
Born in Colombes, France, and standing at 1.94m, Dawa offers a physically imposing, right‑footed option at centre-back. Capable of playing as a central defender across the line, he has built his reputation in Romania’s SuperLiga with FCSB, wearing the No 5 shirt and operating as a first-choice defender in recent seasons.
Dawa, who holds both Cameroonian and French nationality, most recently featured for FCSB in the Romanian SuperLiga, though detailed match-by-match statistics and his latest appearance – including opponent, date, scoreline and individual performance – are not listed in the available data.
With his profile, age and modest valuation compared with many European defenders, a move to Rizespor would offer the chance to test himself in a higher-profile league. If the transfer materialises, it could mark a key late‑prime step in shaping Dawa’s career trajectory and reputation on the continental stage.
