Roma complete loan deal for Olympiacos midfielder Camara

Mady Camara, an Olympiacos midfielder, has joined Roma on a season-long loan with the option to buy.

The Guinea international is the club’s seventh signing this transfer window, following Nemanja Matic, Mile Svilar, Zeki Celik, Paulo Dybala, Georginio Wijnaldum, and Andrea Belotti.

Camara, who will wear the number 20 for the Giallorossi, was with Olympiacos for four seasons, winning three league titles.

In this transfer window, the 25-year-old was linked with a number of clubs across Europe, but he is now looking forward to his new challenge with Roma.

“I’m very happy to be here,” Camara said, according to the club’s official website. “Roma is a fantastic opportunity for me.

“It will be a difficult season, between cups and the league, but I am here to contribute and assist the team in every competition in which we compete.

“It was incredible to see the Olimpico and the Giallorossi fans; I can’t wait to play for them.”

Camara could make his Roma debut on Sunday when the Giallorossi travel to Udinese in Serie A.
