Omar Genne

Omar Janneh joined Lausanne-Sport from Atlético Madrid in January 2026, moving on a contract running to 2030 after a reported transfer fee of two million euros. The switch ended his time in Atlético's academy, where he had come through as a forward before making the move to Switzerland.

Born in Lleida, Spain, Janneh now wears the number 78 shirt for Lausanne-Sport in the Swiss Super League. The size of the fee involved in his transfer marks him out as one of the more significant recent additions to the squad, a departure from the usual pattern of free-transfer academy graduates moving between clubs.

As a forward fresh from a major academy system, Janneh represents the kind of investment in youth that clubs outside Spain's top flight do not often make. What he produces on the pitch in Switzerland will be the first real test of how that move translates.
