    Get to know the latest player to join the Giallorossi!

    Another signing with just hours to go before the transfer window closes - Mady Camara is now a Roma player!

    The midfielder joins the club from Greek side Olympiacos ... here's everything you need to know about the club's latest addition!


    From the beginning

    Mady - now 25 - was born on 28 February 1997 in Matam, a small village not far from Guinea's capital, Conakry.


    His role on the pitch

    A central midfielder capable of playing both a box-to-box and more withdrawn role, Camara is perhaps more known for his efforts on the defensive end - but nonetheless can contribute going forward too.

    The statistics back that up - he has 22 goals and 14 assists in 232 appearances to date.
