Waterford FC are delighted to announce the signing of exciting forward Muhammadu Faal on an 18-month contract, subject to international clearance.
The 28 year-old Englishman makes the move to the Blues having most recently spent the 2024/25 season with Worthing FC in National League South where he scored an impressive 13 goals in their league campaign, as Worthing narrowly missed out on promotion.
Faal started his career with Boreham Wood before moving to Italy to join L’Aquila in Serie D, before returning to the UK two years later in 2017 where he spent time in the National League with clubs such as Dulwich Hamlet & Kingstonian.
After an impressive spell with Enfield Town between 2018 to 2020 where he netted 20 goals in 23 league games, he was rewarded with a move to at the time EFL League 2 side Bolton Wanderers.
The 6ft5’ forward departed the Toughsheet Community Stadium permanently in 2021 as he joined Enfield Town, where he went on to score 35 goals in just 43 games for the National League South side.
Faal continued his impressive goalscoring form at Havant & Waterlooville & Maidstone United, before joining Crawley Town where he played alongside former Blue Junior Quitirna.
Muhammadu made the move to Worthing FC at the start of the 2024/25 season, where he made a lasting impact with the Mackerel Men as they missed out on the league title by just one point, finishing in fourth position.
The forward makes the move across the Irish Sea to add to John Coleman’s attacking options where he will look to play an important role in the Blues side in the coming weeks.
Speaking on signing for Waterford, Faal spoke of his excitement to get to play in-front of the Blues supporters, saying:
“I feel great to be here. There’s a real good set up at the club. I’m a goalscorer who likes to excite the fans. I’m looking forward to getting going on the pitch now and showing the fans what I can do.”
Muhammadu Faal will wear the number 7 shirt with the Blues.
Welcome to Waterford, Muhammadu!
