Transfer News: Moussa Maazou Joins Hangzhou Greentown in China
Nigerien international Moussa Maazou has officially left Portugal to embark on a new adventure in China. After an impressive start to the season with Marítimo Funchal, where he was among the top scorers in the Portuguese league, the striker has signed with Hangzhou Greentown, a club in the Chinese Super League.
The move reunites Maazou with French manager Philippe Troussier, who previously coached CS Sfaxien and brings a wealth of international experience to the Chinese outfit.
Maazou, the captain of Niger’s Mena, is hoping to maintain his form and momentum despite the change in footballing environment. After a challenging period in his career, his resurgence in Portugal caught attention — but all eyes will now be on whether he can sustain his upward trajectory in the rapidly developing but often unpredictable landscape of Chinese football.
