Maja became a free agent after leaving his EFL Championship club following the expiry of his three-year deal. 

He previously enjoyed two spells with Bordeaux between 2019 and 2023, scoring 16 goals during their 2022-23 Ligue 2 campaign.

Maja is expected to add valuable experience to Le Havre’s squad as they target another season in Ligue 1.

 The club were seeking a new centre-forward after Issa Soumaré departed for Rennes on a free transfer.
