At Everton between 2016 - 2019


Bassala Sambou arrived at Everton from Coventry City on a three-year deal in June 2016.

The 18-year old striker joined the Sky Blues at Under-15 level and spent two years in their academy before signing his scholarship deal in June 2014.

Sambou impressed with 25 goals in 2015/16 whilst representing the club's Under-18s and Under-21s sides and was particularly prolific during City's FA Youth Cup run, scoring eight times.

He made his senior Coventry debut under Tony Mowbray in the FA Cup first round against Northampton in November 2015.

In 2018-19 the under 23 team went on to win both the Premier League 2 league title and the Premier League Cup.

On 7th June 2019, Everton announced Bassala had been offered a new deal with Everton, although it was turned down, and he became a free agent at the end of his contract.

Bassala then signed for Dutch club Fortuna Sittard, with Everton receiving FIFA Training Compensation.
