On 3 February 2023, following Krouma's successful 2023 AFC Asian Cup campaign with Syria, Indian Super League club Mumbai City announced that he was signing with the club on a short-term contract until the end of the 2023–24 season.[5] His debut came from the start in a 0–1 away win over East Bengal, keeping a clean sheet alongside Tiri.[6]

Krouma scored his debut goal with a late equalizer against Mohun Bagan in September 2024, saving a point for Mumbai as the game ended in 2-2 draw.[7] On 30 November 2024, Krouma won the player of the match award following his performance at defensive midfield against Hyderabad FC in a 1-0 win at home.[8]

On 26 January 2025, at home against Mohammedan SC, Krouma scored his second goal for the club with a shot from the edge of the box. This was the third goal in an eventual 3-0 win for Mumbai.[9]
