"I am happy and satisfied that an agreement has been reached and that I am now a member of FK Sarajevo," Fanimo told the official website of FK Sarajevo.
"This is a great club in Bosnia and Herzegovina and it is a great honor to play for it. I can't wait to play in front of Sarajevo fans."
Sports coordinator Emir Hadzic added : "I am extremely pleased that we managed to arrange the arrival of Fanim, he is a player who played in the Mladost team the previous two seasons, and is not unknown to our fans. We hope that he will continue with good games in the Bordeaux jersey."
Apart from West Ham, Fanimo turned out for English clubs Tranmere Rovers, Bishop's Stortford, Eastleigh, Margate and AFC Hornchurch before moving abroad in January 2018.
