Pape Habib Gueye, a football forward hailing from Senegal, was born on the 20th of September 1999, now 25 years of age. Standing at a modest 5ft 10in (1.79m) and weighing in at 11st 13lb (76kg), Gueye imposes his presence on the pitch predominantly as a striker for Aberdeen, donning the number 14 jersey. Born in Senegal, the forward has carved a place for himself in the annals of Scottish football.
According to figures indicated by Transfermarkt, Gueye's current market value sits around £844,000. His tenure with Aberdeen sees an expiry date on 31 May 2026 - a date that merits attention as the end of the contract looms closer.
Going back to his trajectory, Gueye found his footing in the OBOS-ligaen in Norway with Aalesunds, joining the team in April 2018. His journey then took him to Kortrijk in Belgium’s Pro League in January 2020. While the financial details of this transfer remain undisclosed to the public, his time at Kortrijk saw the player making strides toward recognition. Spread across several seasons from 2019 - 2022, Gueye made varying first team appearances and maintained a steady scoring record, before making his next move in the football world.
In an unexpected move in August 2023, Gueye left Belgium to join Aberdeen in the Premiership in Scotland, the details of which remain undisclosed. His first season saw him make a reserved four appearances but the current season as of 2024 - 2025 has seen him take more of the spotlight with 17 first team appearances and six goals to his name.
Gueye's journey was far from linear as he was loaned out to Kristiansund in Norway in February 2024. His short stint at Kristiansund displayed his knack for the net, with four goals in 15 first team appearances. Following completion of his loan term, Gueye returned to Aberdeen in July 2024, and has since continued his progress in the team with consistent appearances and an impressive goal count, particularly in the current season of 2024-2025.
Aside from league matches, Gueye's participation is seen considerably in cup matches as well, scoring goals in the League Cup 2024 - 2025 and the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025 representing Aberdeen. He also made his mark in the Conference League 2023 - 2024 with a notable start.
