The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations hero for Nigeria has
left France and moved across to the second tier of
Turkish football
Midfielder Sunday Mba has moved to Turkish side
Malatyaspor from CA Bastia in France, according to
reports.
Malatyaspor play in the TFF First League, the
second division in Turkey after earning promotion at
the end of last season.
Founded in 1966, they are based in Malatya in
Eastern Anatolia and play at the 15,000 capacity
Malatya Inonu Stadium. They are nicknamed Tigers
of the East.
Mba, hero of Nigeria’s 2013 Africa Cup of Nations
triumph, spent one and a half seasons at French
third division side CA Bastia.
This move is seen as an attempt by the player to
rescue his career after a protracted delay ensured
he failed to move immediately after propelling
Nigeria to her third African title in 2013.

Sunday mbah our forgotten AFCON hero!
