Armand Mahan (born September 7, 1983) is an Ivorian professional football player. He is usually positioned as left back or left winger.
Mahan played during his youth for ASEC Mimosas. He moved to Belgium in 2003, when he signed a contract with SK Beveren who worked together with the Ivorian team via the Frenchman Jean-Marc Guillou. Several other, more famous players made this same move such as Emmanuel Eboué, Arthur Boka, Marco Né and Yaya Touré.
In the Jupiler League 2006-07 season, SK Beveren ended 18th and last in the league. As a result, they relegated to the Belgian Second Division. Mahan, being end of contract at Beveren, was offered a contract by Cercle Brugge about two weeks after the end of the season, a contract which he accepted. This way, despite relegating, Mahan will still play at the highest level of Belgian football.
Mahan has played twice for the national team of Ivory Coast.[1]
