Pape Cherif Ndiaye (born 23 January 1996) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serbian SuperLiga club Red Star Belgrade and the Senegal national team.[2]

Club career

[edit]

Ndiaye joined Waasland-Beveren from the Senegalese club Grand Yoff FC.[3] He made his debut for Waasland-Beveren in a 1–0 loss on 21 January 2017 to K.V. Oostende.[4]

Turkey career

[edit]

Ndiaye played at Göztepe (2020–21, 2021–22 seasons) and Adana Demirspor (2022–23 half term, 2023) teams in Turkey. After going to China, SH Port, on 28 January 2023, Ndiaye returned to Turkey on loan to Adana Demirspor with an option to buy.[5] He made a good performance by scoring 4 goals in 6 matches played by Adana Demirspor in the UEFA Europa Conference League qualifying round matches on 2023–24 season. The option to buy was exercised on 1 July 2023.

Red Star Belgrade

[edit]

After Adana Demirspor failed to qualify for the UEFA Conference League, Ndiaye's excellent start to the season did not go unnoticed. In the last minutes of 4 September, Ndiaye inks a three-year contract, with an option for another year, with the UEFA Champions League participant Red Star Belgrade, in a transfer worth €4 million,[6] along with Korean Hwang In-beom. In his new team, he made his UEFA Champions League debut against Manchester City match.[7] His first score in that League is against Young Boys on 4 October 2023.[8] 23 September 2024, he scored a hat-trick in the Eternal derby against Partizan Belgrade and becoming the first player to do so in 56 years since Stevan Ostojić on 17 November 1968.[9]

International career

[edit]

Ndiaye made his debut for the Senegal national team on 6 June 2024 in a World Cup qualifier against DR Congo at the Diamniadio Olympic Stadium. He substituted Nicolas Jackson in the 90th minute as the game ended in a 1–1 draw.[10]
