Amadou Bakayoko (born 1 January 1996) is a Sierra Leonean professional footballer who plays as a forward for League One side Coventry City.

Playing career

After beginning his youth career in Dutch football, where Bakayoko had moved from Sierra Leone as a youngster, he moved to England in his mid-teens and soon won a scholarship at Walsall. After prolific goalscoring at youth and reserve team level, Bakayoko was offered a one-year professional contract at Walsall in December 2013.[3] He made his debut for the "Saddlers" on 5 April, replacing Michael Ngoo 68 minutes into a 1–0 defeat to Port Vale at Vale Park.[4]

On 9 October 2014, Bakayoko joined Conference Premier side Southport on a month's loan.[5] He made a scoring debut as a substitute in Southport's 2–0 victory over Braintree Town.[6] Bakayoko scored his second goal for Southport in a 3–2 victory over Nuneaton Town on 22 November 2014.[7]

Bakayoko joined Worcester City on a one–month loan deal on 15 January 2016[8] and scored three league goals in the National League North for the club.

He scored his first goals for Walsall when he scored a hat-trick in an EFL Trophy tie against Grimsby Town on 30 August 2016.[9] He scored his first league goal in a 3–2 win over Shrewsbury Town on 15 October 2016, though he was later sent off in the same match.[10]

His contact was extended by Walsall at the end of the 2017–18 season after the club exercised an option.[11]

On 7 August 2018, Bakayoko joined League One side Coventry City for an undisclosed fee, signing a two-year deal.[12]
