Career

Born in Accra, Fatau joined Udinese Calcio in July 2010, after starting it out at locals Asante Kotoko SC. He moved to Granada CF in January of the following year, being assigned to the reserves in the regional leagues.

On 12 August 2011 Fatau was loaned to Cádiz CF,[1] but managed to appear only for the B-side in Tercera División. On 27 July of the following year he joined Segunda División B's CD San Roque de Lepe also in a temporary deal,[2] and finished the season with 33 appearances (2899 minutes of action).

On 18 August 2013 Fatau made his debut with the Andalusians' first team, playing the last five minutes of a 2–1 La Liga away victory over CA Osasuna.[3] He finished the campaign with nine appearances (495 minutes of action) as the club narrowly avoided relegation.

On 1 September 2014 Fatau moved to fellow league team Rayo Vallecano, in a season-long deal.[4]
