Ousseini Soumaila Badamassi (born 21 April 1997) is a Nigerien footballer who plays for TP Mazembe and the Niger national team.
Playing for AS SONIDEP in his home country, he won the league in 2018 and the double in 2019. From 2020 to 2023 he played for AS GNN and AS Douanes.[1]
With Niger he reached the semi-final of the 2022 African Nations Championship (which was staged in 2023). In May 2023 he went abroad and signed for perennial Linafoot title contenders TP Mazembe.[2][3] He competed in African continental competition with TP Mazembe.[4]
During the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualification, Badamassi scored for Niger against Sudan[5] and Ghana.[6]
In May 2025, TP Mazembe accused Badamassi of disciplinary misconduct during an away trip. Badamassi, Mercey Ngimbi and Ibrahima Keita were omitted from the squad. The trio allegedly did not "comply with the instructions" and refused to hand over their phones.[7]
