Career

Europe

When Muhamadu was young, he moved with his parents from Amsterdam to Hoorn, where he started playing football. He got his first professional contract with FC Twente. When René Vandereycken became head coach of Twente, Muhamadu was loaned to Cambuur.

He went to MVV in 2004. His successful era in Maastricht earned him a transfer to Jupiler League side Cercle Brugge. However, Muhamadu was never able to achieve a regular spot in the starting eleven. He went to FC Dordrecht, where he would later also find his Dutch former Cercle Brugge team mate Brian Pinas.

In May 2008, Muhamadu signed a contrect with Willem II Tilburg and left the club after one year to sign with Dynamo Dresden on 9 June 2009.[1] After just two months at Dynamo, and three league appearances, his contract was annulled in August 2009. He returned to Dordrecht a few days later.
