Career

Maah was born in Paris, and began his training with Stade Lavallois.[1][2] He started his senior career in Italy with A.S. Bari in 2005, and spent the next years with various clubs in Serie B and Lega Pro, with a short spell in Belgium with R.E. Mouscron. In September 2010, Maah signed a one-year contract with Como.[3] In July 2011 he left for Cittadella.[4]

In January 2013, CFR Cluj signed Maah from Cittadella for a reported fee of €700,000.[5][6] In July 2014 he signed a two-year contract with US Orléans.[7] He left after the first season, when Orléans were relegated, and was reported to be a target of RC Lens, AJ Auxerre and AC Ajaccio.[8] However, within a week he had signed a two-year deal with Turkish side Göztepe S.K.[9]

In August 2016, Maah signed for Gazélec Ajaccio on a two-year deal with the option for a further year.[10] However, in October 2017 he was sacked by the club for serious misconduct.[11] He signed for US Boulogne in August 2018 for one season.[12] After being second highest scorer in the 2018–19 Championnat National he left Boulogne and signed for the club he started with, Stade Lavallois, in July 2019.[2]

Released by Laval at the end of the 2019–20 season, Maah joined Luxembourg side Union Titus Pétange in June 2020.[13]
