Moussa Sissako (born 10 November 2000) is a professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for the Belgian Pro League club RWD Molenbeek, on loan from Russian Premier League club Sochi. Born in France, he plays for the Mali national team.
Sissako joined Paris Saint-Germain from RC France in 2012. He signed his first professional contract on 1 June 2018, a deal that linked him with PSG until 30 June 2021. [2] During the 2017–18 and 2018–19 seasons, Sissako played for PSG's B team, making a total of 24 appearances and scoring 1 goal.[ citation needed ]
On 28 January 2020, Sissako joined Belgian club Standard Liège on a six-month loan with an option to buy. [3] At the end of the season, the deal was made permanent for a fee of €400,000. [4] [5] He made his professional debut in a 4–1 Belgian Cup win over Seraing on 3 February 2021. [6]
On 1 September 2022, Sissako joined Russian Premier League club Sochi. [7]
On 6 September 2023, Sissako joined Belgian Pro League club RWD Molenbeek on loan with an option to buy. He also signed a four-year contract with the club which will be in place in case the option to buy is exercised. [8]
Born in France, Sissako holds French and Malian nationalities. [9] He has regularly been called up to play with the France youth teams in the past.

[11] He debuted for the senior Mali national team in a 5–0 FIFA World Cup qualification win over Kenya on 7 October 2021. [12]
Usually a left-sided centre-back, Sissako is versatile enough to play on both central defensive positions of a back four. He occasionally plays on the right side of a back three, and sometimes as the central defender in a back five. [13] He is good with both of his feet. [14] PSG youth coach François Rodrigues has described Sissako as a player that is "very aggressive on the field". [15]

In October 2020, Sissako tested positive for COVID-19, along with several of his teammates at Standard Liège. [17]
