Hemeya Tanjy (born 1 May 1998) is a Mauritanian footballer who plays as a forward for Mauritanian club Nouadhibou and the Mauritania national team.

Club career

[edit]

Tanjy grew up playing street football in the streets of his hometown of Nouakchott.[3] He played for local teams such as Skok Club and Zamzam club before he was discovered by the National Football Academy, where he spent a few years.[3]

Tanjy made his senior debut with topflight club Tidjikja, where he played for three years.[4] He finished as the league's leading scorer in the 2017–18 season.[5]

Tanjy signed a two-year deal with Nouadhibou in June 2018.[6] In his first year with the club, he scored the game-winning goal in the title-clinching match against ASAC Concorde.[7]

He finished as the leading scorer in the 2020–21 season, scoring 19 goals in 18 matches.[5]

In December 2022, Tanjy became the first player in league history to score 100 goals.[8]

International career

[edit]

Tanjy played for the national under-20 team during the 2017 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations qualifiers in 2016, scoring twice in two matches.[9]

In May 2018, he was named to the 22-man squad selected to play at the 2019 Africa U-23 Cup of Nations qualifiers.[10]

He received a callup up to the senior national team in January 2018 ahead of the 2018 African Nations Championship.[11] He made his senior international debut during the first group stage match against Morocco on 13 January, replacing Moussa Samba in the 77th minute of an eventual 4–0 defeat.[12] Mauritania was eliminated in the group stage.

He was called up yet again for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt,[13] though he did not appear in any games.[3]

On 9 October 2020, Tanjy scored his first senior international goal in a 2–1 friendly win over Sierra Leone. He scored his second international goal on 22 June 2021, netting the second goal in a 2–0 win over Yemen that qualified Mauritania to the FIFA Arab Cup.[14] In November 2021, Tanjy was named to the final squad for the FIFA Arab Cup.[15]
