Joyskim Dawa: PAOK linked with move for FCSB centre-back

PAOK are being linked with a move for FCSB centre-back Joyskim Dawa, with the Greek Super League 1 side monitoring the 30-year-old’s situation ahead of a potential summer transfer.

The Cameroon‑France defender, valued at €2.00m on Transfermarkt, is the subject of growing speculation over a switch from Romania’s SuperLiga to Thessaloniki, although the reported probability of the deal remains unclear, listed only as “?”. With Dawa’s contract situation at FCSB not publicly disclosed and no expiry date registered, observers have suggested a free-agent scenario could yet emerge if no extension is agreed and FCSB choose not to cash in.

Born on 9 April 1996 in Colombes, France, the 1.94m right‑footed centre-back has established himself as a physically imposing presence in the Romanian top flight, wearing the No 5 shirt for FCSB. Capable of anchoring the back line in his main position at centre‑back, his profile fits PAOK’s preference for experienced, aerially dominant defenders as they look to reinforce for domestic and European campaigns.

Dawa, who holds both Cameroonian and French nationality, has seen his performances in the SuperLiga underpin his current valuation, with his market value updated most recently at €2.00m. While there is no official confirmation of negotiations between the clubs, the link to PAOK comes amid wider interest in players whose contracts are either nearing their end or are open to renegotiation, heightening talk of a potential free‑agent opportunity if his deal in Bucharest is not formalised.

Recent outings for FCSB in the Romanian SuperLiga have kept Dawa in the shop window, with his defensive displays closely watched by scouts tracking his form and fitness in the run‑up to the summer window.

Should a move materialise, a switch from FCSB to PAOK would offer Dawa a fresh platform in Greece’s top division and the chance to enhance his reputation in a new league at a pivotal stage of his career.
