10 Jun 2022 : Linnets sign Spanish midfielder Sidi from Macclesfield
Runcorn Linnets are delighted to unveil and welcome our latest acquisition.
Sidi Sanogo Fofana joins from North West Counties League Premier Division champions, Macclesfield.
Midfielder Sidi, a 23-year-old Spanish national, last season played 26 times for the now Northern Premier League West newboys.
Known for his vision and athleticism, Sidi is good with both feet, making him ideal for a central position.
His previous clubs also include UD Fraga, EF Fraga and UE Bordeta, all in his homeland, and since coming to England he has served AFC Darwen, Bamber Bridge and Radcliffe.
Living in Blackburn, Sidi joined Macclesfield last summer for the start of their first season and made a big impression with the fans.
He can operate as a holding midfielder or in a more attacking role.
Sidi was also registered with Glossop North End during 2021-22 - making six appearances for the Hillmen either side of Christmas and New Year.
These included a 1-1 league draw against Linnets at APEC Taxis Stadium.
Sidi is on a BA degree course in sports studies ,at University of Central Lancashire.
