Aberdeen have sold Scottish Cup-winning striker Pape Habib Gueye to Turkish Super Lig side Kasimpasa for what the Dons described as “a significant undisclosed fee”.

The 25-year-old Senegal striker moved to Pittodrie in August 2023 from Belgian club KV Kortrijk.

After going out on loan to Norwegian outfit Kristiansund Ballklubb in the second half of his first season at Aberdeen, Gueye returned to the Granite City last summer and scored 12 goals last term before coming on in the second half of the cup final triumph over Celtic in May.

“We wish Pape all the very best with his transfer to Turkey, and we thank him for his contributions during his time at Aberdeen, notably his positive impact in the Scottish Cup final,” manager Jimmy Thelin told the Dons website.

“We’re pleased with our recruitment so far this summer and the work remains ongoing to bring in further reinforcements and improvements ahead of the window closing. We are still shaping the squad.

“We thank Pape for his efforts and wish him all the best with the next chapter in his career.”
