Elyess Dao strengthens our attacking line

RSC Anderlecht has strengthened its attacking line with Ellyes Dao (18). The promising Moroccan joins us from French side SC Amiens and has signed a contract until 2029.

Elyess Dao is a versatile Moroccan offensive player who grew up in Toulouse and spent his early years at the club of Toulouse FC. In the summer of 2024, he made the move to SC Amiens. There, he featured in 14 matches this season in the Ligue 2. In Amiens' cup campaign, he immediately scored twice in three games. Elyess is also a Moroccan youth international who now plays for the Moroccan national team's U20s.

Sports Director Olivier Renard:

"Elyess is a talented striker with a very interesting profile. He was brought up as a striker but can be deployed in all offensive positions. He has the style we like to see at Anderlecht, he’s very good on the ball and he is fast. There was quite a lot of interest in him, so we are happy that he has chosen RSC Anderlecht's project."
