Widzew Łódź has confirmed the transfer of 28-year-old striker Pape Meissa Ba. The Senegalese player had been playing for Schalke 04 since January. His record in the spring round of the previous 2.Bundesliga season is 13 games and two goals scored. He did better in Ligue 1 - in the fall, he scored 10 goals for Grenoble Foot. In total, he played 107 matches and scored 26 goals in the French top league. Pape Meissa Ba is a player who will contribute to achieving our goals thanks to his great experience and football knowledge. He also has a different profile than the other offensive players, which gives the coach the possibility of combinations and different options. He has excellent vision and ideas for the game. His strong points are dribbling, quality, and speed of decision-making, as well as opening up actions, but his strongest point is taking advantage of scoring opportunities. I want to help the team achieve its goals. My strongest point is scoring goals, but during the season, you will also discover my other skills - said Pape Meissa Ba. This is the thirteenth player to join Widzew this summer. The club has spent a lot of money, but so far, it has not translated into results. Widzew currently occupies thirteenth place in the league table. Widzew's sports director, Mindaugas Nikolicius, said that Pape is a player who will contribute to achieving our goals. And indeed, it happened. On Saturday, Widzew confirmed the transfer of Pape Meissa Ba. But does this mean that Widzew will fight for the championship? So time will tell. Pape Meissa Ba has a contract until June 30, 2028.
