Somalia–Norway right winger Yasir Abdiqadir Sa’Ad has completed a permanent move from KFUM Oslo to Rana FK on a free transfer, signing a contract that begins on 2026-03-31 and is currently scheduled to run until an unspecified future date, with no expiry listed in the available registration data.
The deal takes the 23-year-old from Norway’s top flight, the Eliteserien, down to the PostNord-ligaen Avd. 2, where Rana FK compete. Despite the move coming without a transfer fee, Sa’Ad arrives in Mo i Rana carrying a market value of €125k, underlining the scale of the coup for a club at this level of the Norwegian football pyramid.
Sa’Ad, a left-footed attacker whose main position is on the right wing, joins Rana FK after a succession of moves within Oslo football. Born in Oslo and holding dual Somalia and Norway nationality, he has been on the books of several capital clubs, including Vålerenga Fotball Youth, Vålerenga Fotball II, Skeid Oslo II, Skeid Oslo, Grorud IL and most recently KFUM Oslo. His trajectory has seen him develop through youth and reserve sides into senior football across both the Eliteserien and lower national divisions.
The winger’s transfer history charts a player steadily climbing and then circulating through competitive environments: a standard move from Vålerenga’s youth ranks to Vålerenga II, a subsequent switch to Skeid Oslo II, and then a permanent move to KFUM Oslo. Loan spells to Grorud IL and Skeid Oslo followed, with both loans formally ending before his latest permanent registration at Rana FK. None of these moves have listed fees, suggesting that, as now, he has frequently changed clubs without significant transfer outlays.
While the current registration confirms him as a Rana FK player, his contract details at the new club do not yet include a specified end date, leaving open the theoretical possibility that he could in future become a free agent if no long-term deal is later formalised or extended. For now, however, there is no indication in the data that he is anything other than under contract at Rana FK.
Market value records show a steady rise for Sa’Ad over recent years. Valued at €50k while at KFUM Oslo in early 2023, he climbed to €100k later that year. During spells at Grorud IL his valuation rose again to €150k, before settling at €125k while at Skeid Oslo. That figure remains attached to his profile at the time of this latest move to Rana FK, suggesting the club have captured a player whose perceived worth significantly exceeds the level’s usual outlay.
No detailed seasonal statistics or individual match records are provided in the current dataset, so concrete information on Sa’Ad’s recent appearances, goals, assists or specific performances – including opponents, scorelines and dates – is not available. It is therefore not possible to accurately summarise his impact in any single recent fixture or quantify his contribution across the most recent campaign.
What is clear from the data is the profile of player Rana FK are acquiring: a 1.73m, left-footed right winger, still only 23, with experience in Norway’s Eliteserien and in the country’s lower professional tiers, and with a background that connects Somali and Norwegian football cultures. The move keeps him in Norway rather than taking him abroad, but it does place him in a different competitive context, shifting from the top division environment of KFUM Oslo to the more regionalised fight of the PostNord-ligaen Avd. 2. How long he remains there, and whether a future free-agent status might open further doors, will depend on the performances he now delivers in Rana colours.
