Ghanaian defender Abdul Mumin is set to part ways with Rayo Vallecano this summer, with multiple clubs across Europe monitoring his situation ahead of a potential free transfer, Footy-Africa can can exclusively confirm.
Mumin is expected to leave the Madrid-based side at the expiration of his contract, bringing an end to a memorable spell in Spain that saw him establish himself as one of the club’s most reliable defensive figures.
The 27-year-old joined Rayo Vallecano in 2022 from Portuguese outfit Vitória Guimarães and gradually became a key pillar in the team’s backline. Known for his aggressive defending, composure on the ball and aerial strength, Mumin earned praise for his consistency in La Liga during his time at the club.
His progress, however, suffered a setback earlier this year after sustaining an injury that kept him sidelined for a lengthy period. Despite the frustration of missing crucial matches, the Ghanaian defender worked his way back to full fitness and recently returned to action, boosting both club and national team hopes ahead of the new season.

Sources indicate that several clubs in Spain, France, Belgium and the Middle East are interested in securing his signature, with the opportunity to sign him on a free transfer making him an attractive option in the market.
Mumin’s availability has sparked strong interest due to his top-flight experience in La Liga and his growing reputation as one of Ghana’s dependable defenders abroad.
The former FC Nordsjælland and Vitória de Guimarães defender has also remained in contention for the Ghana national football team setup, with his performances in Spain previously earning him recognition on the international stage.
As the summer transfer window approaches, Mumin is expected to weigh his options carefully before deciding on the next chapter of his career.
