Mumin became a free agent after his Rayo contract expired at the end of June 2026. Before his move to Girona emerged, the Ghanaian had attracted interest from several clubs in Spain and elsewhere in Europe, with Girona included among the teams that wanted his signature.

His final season at Rayo was affected by a serious knee injury suffered in March 2025. He returned to action in April 2026 and made three La Liga appearances before the end of the season.

His move to Girona would keep him in La Liga. Mumin previously played for FC Nordsjælland and HB Køge in Denmark before moving to Vitória Guimarães in Portugal. Rayo later signed him in 2022.
