Former Barcelona and Arsenal midfielder Alex Song has reportedly joined Djibouti Premier League club Arta/Solar7.
According to Football237 via L’Equipe, the former Cameroon star has penned a two-year deal with the Djiboutian giants, eight months after he was released by Sion.
Song was among the four African players sacked by the Swiss Super League club in March for refusing to take a pay cut due to the coronavirus outbreak.
In addition to his playing role in Djibouti, Song will be expected to supervise their youth development after meeting with the club’s president.
Arta/Solar 7 are reigning Djibouti Cup champions which automatically guarantees them a place in next season’s Caf Confederation Cup.
Last month, Song announced the completion of an international school he built in Douala - the Canadian International School and College which boasts a daycare, nursery, primary and secondary school.
The 33-year-old who started his playing career in France with Bastia, has enjoyed a nomadic career across Europe with stints at Arsenal, Charlton Athletic, Barcelona, West Ham United, Rubin Kazan and Sion. (Goal)
