Pape Amodou "Modou" Sougou (born 18 December 1984) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays for Portuguese club Moreirense on loan from Sheffield Wednesday as a right winger.
Born in the village of Fissel, in the M'bour Department, Sougou started his career with Dakar-based AS Douanes. He moved to Portugal in 2004 at the age of 19, signing a four-year contract with U.D. Leiria. He made his Primeira Liga debut on 29 November, by coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 home win against S.L. Benfica.
Sougou continued to compete in the Portuguese top flight in the following six seasons, representing Vitória de Setúbal, Leiria and Académica de Coimbra. In 2009–10, whilst at the service of the latter club, he scored a career-best in the country nine goals in 29 games, helping it to the 11th position; additionally, in early 2013, he revealed that he came close to signing with FC Porto when André Villas-Boas was the manager, but a potential deal fell through due to injury.
In June 2011 Sougou joined Liga I side CFR Cluj, having previously signed a pre-contract agreement. The move was put on hold because his previous club, Académica, wanted €300,000 in compensation, but the transfer was eventually completed whilst the player stated one of the main reasons to sign was rejoining former manager Jorge Costa.
