Pape Cherif Ndiaye (born 23 January 1996) is a Senegalese footballer who plays as a forward for Serbian SuperLiga club Red Star Belgrade.[2]

Professional career[edit]

Ndiaye joined Waasland-Beveren from the Senegalese club Grand Yoff FC.[3] He made his debut for Waasland-Beveren in a 1–0 loss on 21 January 2017 to K.V. Oostende.[4]

Turkey career[edit]

He played at Göztepe (2020-21, 2021-22 seasons) and Adana Demirspor (2022-23 half term, 2023) teams in Turkey. After going to China, SH Port, on 28 January 2023, Ndiaye returned to Turkey on loan to Adana Demirspor with an option to buy.[5] He made a good performance by scoring 4 goals in 6 matches played by Adana Demirspor in the UEFA Europa Conference League qualifying round matches on 2023-24 season. The option to buy was exercised on 1 July 2023.

Red Star Belgrade[edit]

After Adana Demirspor failed to qualify for the UEFA Conference League, Ndiaye's excellent start to the season did not go unnoticed. In the last minutes of September 4, Ndiaye inks a three-year contract, with an option for another year, with the UEFA Champions League participant Red Star Belgrade, in a transfer worth 4 million euros,[6] along with Korean Hwang In-beom. In his new team, he made his UEFA Champions League debut against Manchester City match.[7] His first score in that League is against Young Boys on 4 October 2023.[8]
