Mauritania-Senegal left winger Papa Ndiaga Yade of FC Oleksandriya is reportedly attracting interest from Ukrainian Premier Liga rivals Kolos Kovalivka in a potential summer move.
The 26-year-old, valued at €400k on Transfermarkt, is the subject of transfer speculation within Ukraine’s top flight, with Kolos said to be exploring a deal as they look to add attacking depth on the flanks. The reported probability of the transfer remains unclear, listed only as “?” at this stage.
Yade’s contractual situation at Oleksandriya is also uncertain, with no public information on a fixed expiry date, which has fuelled talk that he could yet become available as a free agent if no agreement is reached. That ambiguity is understood to be one of the factors encouraging interest from Kolos, who are searching for cost‑effective options in the domestic market.
Standing at 1.85m and left-footed, Yade operates primarily as an attacking left winger but can also function across the forward line, offering direct running and physical presence in wide areas. Born on 5 January 2000 in Saint‑Louis, he holds both Mauritanian and Senegalese nationality and wears the number 37 shirt for Oleksandriya.
He has been featuring in the Ukrainian Premier Liga for Oleksandriya, with his latest outing coming recently in the domestic campaign, though detailed official statistics for goals and assists this season have not been disclosed in the data provided. There is also no indication yet of any formal bid or advanced negotiations between the clubs.
With his market valuation relatively modest by top-flight standards and his contract details unresolved, a switch to Kolos Kovalivka would represent a significant next step in Yade’s career, potentially offering him a more prominent role and a platform to enhance his reputation in Ukrainian football if the move eventually materialises.
