Career

Early career

[edit]

Gadi first started playing for his local side Grigny, before playing for Linas-Montlhéry and Viry-Châtillon at age 13 and 14 respectively.[4] Marseille signed Gadi to train with them at age 15, despite interest from other Ligue 1 clubs. However, Marseille was the club that Gadi's father supported, thus the decision.[5] He signed his first professional contract in 2011,[6] and he made his professional debut on 17 December 2011 in a 2–1 win over Lorient, coming on for Jordan Ayew.[7] He was loaned to Boulogne in 2012 under the auspices of various coaches at Marseille. Upon return, he stated he wished to progress his career with Marseille.[8] However, he was released following the Boulogne loan.

Despite interest from Doncaster Rovers in the Championship, Gadi and the Doncaster representatives failed to reach an agreement, so he signed with Lokomotiv Plovdiv in Bulgaria.[9]

Septemvri Sofia

[edit]

On 18 June 2017, Gadi signed with the newly promoted to Bulgarian First League team of Septemvri Sofia, coming from Spartak Pleven.[10] He made his debut for the team in the second round of the league during a win against Pirin Blagoevgrad.[11]

Olympic Charleroi

[edit]

In August 2020 he joined Belgian First Amateur Division club Olympic Charleroi.[12]
