Mam Jaiteh officially signed with Dubai on Monday, becoming the latest addition to the roster of the EuroLeague’s newest team.
The French center has inked a two-year contract with the ambitious Emirati club.
Dubai, the newest member of the EuroLeague, continues to bolster its squad following the arrivals of Dzanan Musa from Real Madrid and Serbian guard Aleksa Avramovic. Now, it’s Mam Jaiteh who joins the project, after his contract with Monaco expired.
The 30-year-old center previously played two seasons with Virtus Bologna (2021–2023), where he won the EuroCup and was named the MVP of the competition. He then moved to Monaco, where he played from 2023 to 2025.

During the 2024–2025 EuroLeague season, Jaiteh averaged 7.5 points and 4 rebounds in 15 minutes per game. Although often coming off the bench for the Roca Team, he remained a key piece of the frontcourt rotation and contributed on both ends of the floor.
“Mam Jaiteh could have a more significant role in Dubai, a team that is still forming its identity but aims to make a strong impact in its debut EuroLeague season.”
Over the past season, Jaiteh delivered consistent performances in both the LNB Pro A and the EuroLeague, offering a strong physical presence, rebounding, and defense in the paint.
