Pape Alassane Gueye (born 24 January 1999) is a professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Ligue 1 club Marseille.[2] Born in France, he plays for the Senegal national team.

Club career

Le Havre

Gueye made his professional debut for Le Havre in a 0–0 Ligue 2 tie with Chamois Niortais on 5 May 2017.[3] He signed his first professional contract on 20 June 2017.[4]

Watford

On 29 April 2020, it was revealed that Gueye had agreed to join Premier League team Watford when his contract with Le Havre expired on 1 July 2020. Gueye signed a five-year contract with Watford and wore the club's jersey, according to promotional material and a press release made by the club..[5][6]

24 hours later, Watford agreed a deal for Gueye's transfer to Ligue 1 club Marseille, which included a sell-on clause for Watford. Gueye claimed his agent had given “bad advice”, citing his Watford contract contained a salary of £45,000 per month, not the £45,000 per week, that Gueye was originally quoted by his agent.[7][8]

Marseille

On 1 July 2020, Gueye signed a four year deal with Ligue 1 side Marseille,[9] for a reported fee of €3 million (£2.7 million).[10][11]

International career

Gueye was born in France and is of Senegalese descent.[12] He represented both the France national under-18 football team and the France U19s. However, he decided to represent Senegal on senior level. He debuted with the Senegal national team in a 2–0 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification win over Congo on 14 November 2021.[13][14]

Style of play

Gueye is a box-to-box midfielder, noted for his aggressive and highly competitive style of play. He also has a good game viewing and physical strength.[15]
