Early career

[edit]

Rangers

[edit]

Gafaiti began his career in the youth team at Nancy before joining Rangers in 2011, for whom he also played youth team football. However, after only one season in Scotland, Gafaiti was among nine players to be released upon their contract coming to an end in the summer due to the ongoing process of the club's administration.[4][5]

Norwich City

[edit]

During summer 2012, Gafaiti moved to Premier League side Norwich City from Rangers.[6] He made 24 appearances for the Norwich U-21 side. On 1 July 2013, he was called up to the senior squad but made no appearances.[7] Despite not making a first team appearance, Gafaiti was linked a move away from Norwich City, as clubs from Europe were keen to sign him.[8]

During the January 2014 transfer window, Gafaiti moved to Football League One side Oldham Athletic on a season long loan.[9] He made his debut on 22 March 2014 on a 1–0 home victory against Crawley Town, coming on in added time.[10] Only just making one appearance, it was announced on 22 April that Gafaiti had returned to his parent club.[11] After returning to his Norwich City, Gafaiti signed a two-year contract.[12] Gafaiti continued to be in the club's development squad until his release at the end of the 2015–16 season.[13]

MC Oran

[edit]

After leaving Norwich City, Gafaiti moved to Algeria, signing for MC Oran.[14][15]

Yeovil Town

[edit]

In September 2018, Gafaiti returned to England to join the Endorsed Academy and signed for its partner club South West Peninsula League Division One side Mousehole.[16] On 24 November 2018, Gafaiti signed for EFL League Two side Yeovil Town on a short-term contract.[17] At the end of the 2018–19 season, Gafaiti was released by Yeovil following the club's relegation from the Football League.[18]
