Club career edit

Sanyang joined Lommel in the summer 2019 transfer window, arriving on a loan basis from Superstars Academy in Gambia together with his fellow countrymen Alieu Jallow and Salif Kujabi.[1] Sanyang was awarded several starts over the coming months and even managed to score the equalizing goal in the 2019–20 Belgian Cup match against Standard Liège, his team eventually going down 2–1 due to a last minute winner by the home team.

On 1 February 2022, Sanyang signed a 2.5-year contract with French club Grenoble.[2]
