Girona signs central defender Abdul Mumin

Girona FC has bolstered its defensive lineup by securing the services of central defender Abdul Mumin on a three-season contract. The 28-year-old Ghanaian defender, who stands at 1.88 meters tall, will join the club without having to pay any transfer fee. Mumin joins the red-and-white project with the aim of providing solidity, strength, and invaluable experience to the heart of Girona's defense.

Born in Accra on June 6, 1998, Mumin is a seasoned defender with an impressive track record in European football. Before his move to Spain, he spent significant time playing for Danish club FC Nordsjælland and Portuguese side Vitoria Guimaraes. His professional journey began at the Right to Dream academy in Ghana, where he honed his skills.

Mumin's professional career has seen him don the jerseys of several prominent clubs across Europe. Before his current stint with Rayo Vallecano, he played over 60 official matches for the Spanish side. Additionally, the Ghanaian defender has been a key member of the Ghana national team, making his debut in June 2024 and being part of the squad that participated in the 2026 World Cup.

With his arrival, Girona strengthens a position that has undergone considerable changes throughout the summer transfer window. The club's addition of Mumin not only brings a LaLiga veteran to the team but also a player who possesses the physical prowess and tactical understanding necessary to be an integral part of the team's defensive structure. Fans can look forward to seeing Mumin make his mark on Girona's defense as the team sets its sights on the 2026/27 season. Welcome, Mumin!
