Born on 20th September 1999, Pape Habib Gueye, a native of Senegal, is a proficient forward who chiefly features as a striker for Aberdeen, donning the number 14 jersey. His physical attributes, standing at 5ft 10in (1.79m) and tipping the scales at a sturdy 11st 13lb (76kg), commendably supplement his striking prowess.
With a market value in the region of Β£850,000, as stated by Transfermarkt, Gueye has time left on his Aberdeen contract - 1 year and 8 months to be precise, due to terminate on 31st May 2026.
Earlier in his career, back in April 2018, Gueye joined Norway's Aalesunds, then a part of the OBOS-ligaen. His tenure in Belgium commenced in January 2020, when he made a move without a disclosed fee from Aalesunds to Kortrijk, a team in the Pro League. The duration of his stay at Kortrijk is marked by an escalating performance pattern. From finding the back of the net once in four appearances in his debut season, Gueye improved to score five goals from 31 outings in the 2020-2021 campaign. The following season, he consistently netted five goals in 16 appearances, though managed just three from 26 outings in the 2022-2023 season.
In August 2023, Gueye left Kortrijk to join the ranks of Aberdeen in Scotland's Premiership, again without a disclosed fee. Since then, he has made a total of nine first team appearances across two seasons for Aberdeen, recording five goals in the current season. A brief interlude saw him loaned to Kristiansund, a Norwegian Eliteserien team, in February 2024, where he made 15 appearances and scored four goals in the same season.
Upon completion of his loan, Gueye returned to Aberdeen in July 2024. His contributions to Aberdeen extend beyond just the league campaigns, as he has made his mark in the League Cup arenas, netting once in three games during the 2024-2025 seasons. Gueye also made appearances in the Scottish Cup 2023-2024 and the Conference League 2023-2024, starting once in the latter.
