Moustapha Adjalian Seck (born 23 February 1996) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays as a left back for Neftçi in the Azerbaijan Premier League.
Early career
Born in Dakar, Senegal, Seck moved to Barcelona in Spain when he was five years old.[1] He began playing football with his local football club before being picked up by Barcelona in 2005, and spent eight years in the club's Cantera.[1] In 2013, Seck sought a new challenge and elected to follow in the footsteps of compatriot and former Barcelona teammate Keita Baldé and sign for Serie A side Lazio.[2][3][1] At Lazio, Seck played for three seasons between the club's academy and reserve sides and won three titles before being released in 2016 following contractual disagreements with management.[1][4]
Roma
Following the expiration of his contract with Lazio, Seck signed as a free-agent for local rivals Roma.[3] On 9 December 2016, manager Luciano Spalletti handed him his debut in a 0–0 Europa League draw with Astra.[1]
Loans to Carpi and Empoli
On the deadline day of the January 2017 transfer window, Seck agreed to join Serie B side Carpi on loan for the remainder of the season.[1] He described the move as being the "right preparation" for him to achieve his goal of representing Senegal at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[1] He made his debut for the club on 5 February, coming on as a second-half substitute for Slovenian international Enej Jelenič in a 2–1 loss to Cesena.[5] Seck ultimately made three appearances on loan at Carpi before returning to Roma at the end of the season.[6]
In July the following year, Seck signed for recently-relegated Serie B side Empoli on a season-long loan.[7] He made his debut in a 2–2 Coppa Italia penalty shootout loss to Renate.[8]
Loan to Almere City
On 22 July 2018, Seck joined Eerste Divisie club Almere City on loan until 30 June 2019.[9]
Loan to Livorno
On 31 January 2020, he was loaned to Serie B club Livorno.[10]
