Former Arsenal and Barcelona’s midfielder joins Djibouti side
Zamfara Reporters – November 7, 2020
Former Arsenal and Barcelona midfielder Alex Song has reportedly made a shock move to Djibouti Premier League side Arta Solar 7.
Song, 33, has been a free agent since Swiss Super League side FC Sion terminated his contract shortly after the coronavirus pandemic halted football across the globe.
And while he contested the decision, the 49-time capped Cameroon international who’s been without a club since March has now opted for a bizarre move to the African minnows.
According to reports in Cameroonian media, the midfielder has signed a one-year contract with an option for a further year.
It marks a stark decline in the career of Song who Barcelona forked out £15-million to lure him from the Premier League to Camp Nou in 2012.
Song was part of the Barcelona side that won the 2012/2013 Laliga title.
Also, he featured for Arsenal who were shocked 2-1 by Birmingham City in the 2011 League Cup final
