Playing career

Millwall

Siafa was attached to the Arsenal Academy until he switched to the West Ham United Academy in August 2008. He was released by the "Hammers" in 2013[3] and signed with Millwall.[4]

Having been regular in Neil Harris' U21 Development Squad throughout the course of the 2013/14 season, Saifa signed his first professional contract with the club ahead of the 2014–15 season.[5] Siafa made his professional debut, in the first round of Football League Cup, coming on as a substitute for Jermaine Easter in the 84h minutes, in a 1–0 against Wycombe Wanderers.[6] However, after two years at Millwall, Siafa was among eighteen players to be released by the club when their contract expired.[7] He joined Scottish Premiership club Kilmarnock as a trialist in July 2015, and is part of their pre season training squad.
