Ramadhan Mohammed "Rama" Salim (born 20 March 1993 in Mombasa) is a Kenyan footballer who plays for Tanzanian Premier League side Coastal Union and the Kenya national team as a striker or an attacking midfielder.
Salim began his career at Mombasa-based club Congo JMJ United, and was an integral part of the side when they won promotion to the Kenyan Premier League for the 2011 season. After a fantastic season that saw him win the KPL Young Player of the Year award, Salim signed a three-year deal with Gor Mahia, ending weeks of transfer speculation surrounding the player that included clubs such as A.F.C. Leopards, Mathare United, Tusker and Ulinzi Stars.
After joining K'Ogalo for the 2012 season, Salim made his debut for the club in a friendly match against Sudanese side Al-Merrikh at the Nyayo National Stadium on 29 January 2012. He made his league debut for the side against Thika United on 12 February 2012, coming on for Dan Makori in the 79th minute to help his side to a 2–0 win. On 10 November 2012, the last day of the season, after Gor Mahia were held to a 1–1 draw by Thika United at the Nairobi City Stadium when they needed a win to clinch the title, Salim made headlines when he sat down on the pitch and cried bitterly at the end of the match. However, he helped the side win the pre-season edition of the 2013 Kenyan Super Cup the following year.
