Seydou Doumbia

From childhood, Seydou Doumbia was used to overcoming difficulties on the way to a dream. He managed to escape from the poor African region and win the status of a football star.

Seydou Doumbia was born on December 31, 1987 in the city of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, he is Ivorian by nationality. The early years of the champion's biography were difficult: the parents divorced, and the boy was raised by his mother along with three brothers. To be able to work, the woman was forced to leave her sons with her grandparents.

Little Seydoux grew up in one of the most dangerous and poorest areas of the city, he often had to see people being beaten for money. Football helped the boy escape from the nightmarish reality, he had to play barefoot, because his mother could not buy sneakers. But this did not prevent the young champion from being among the leaders.

As a teenager, Doumbia worked part-time helping his uncle and brother sell handkerchiefs in the market. There, coach Olivier Coutua drew attention to him, who had previously watched the boy play on the street and wanted to give him a better future. So the athlete ended up in the academy of the Santre Formation d'Inter club and only after that he first went to school. Soon he began to participate in competitions, receiving the first money, most of which he gave to his family.

The personal life of a football star was successful, he met his future wife Jossi in Switzerland, later the couple had a daughter.

Seydoux's professional career began in 2003 when he started playing for Athletic Ajame. Already at that time, the young man managed to demonstrate the makings of a great striker, and soon competing clubs began to take an interest in him. He changed several teams, but the main goal remained to move from Côte d'Ivoire.

Seydu always loved his country, but he understood that by staying in it he would never get out of poverty. And the guy needed to provide for his family, so when he got the chance to move to Japan, he gave his consent.

It was not easy to adapt in a foreign country, Doumbia felt lonely and did not immediately get used to the peculiarities of his mentality. But he was conquered by the local cuisine, the football player went to a restaurant every free evening to order a portion of sushi.

The athlete also managed to prove himself on the field not on the first try. Initially, he signed a contract with Kashiva Reisol, but did not live up to expectations and went on loan to Tokushima Vortis. There, the scouts of the Swiss club "Young Boys" drew attention to the young striker, who offered him cooperation. Despite the fact that the salary in Japan was better, the footballer agreed as his friend played on the team.

After moving to Switzerland, Seydoux's potential was revealed. Already in his debut season, he managed to score 20 goals in 32 matches, after which he was recognized as the top scorer. Therefore, in the end, the contract was extended for another 5 years.

In 2010, Dumbia moved to CSKA Moscow, making his debut at the Russian Championship. During this period, the guy could boast of excellent athletic form: he weighed 74 kg with a height of 179 cm and impressed the fans with his virtuoso style of play.

During his time in the team, the athlete replenished the piggy bank of achievements with victories at the Russian Championship, the Cup and the State Super Cup. In 2011, he topped the list of leading Russian footballers according to the Sport Express publication. It is not surprising, because in that season the player managed to show impressive statistics - 37 goals in 55 matches played.

In parallel, Doumbia continued to play for the Ivory Coast national team, with which he won the African Cup in 2015. In the same year, representatives of the Italian "Roma" became interested in the man, but then Seydoux was out of shape and did not show the expected results, so he returned to CSKA on loan.

After that, the player changed several clubs, was in Newcastle, Sporting and Girona, but, despite his talented game and the status of a FIFA legend, he did not stay anywhere for long. He won the Swiss championship with Basel, but he barely managed to hold out for a year there either. In 2019, the champion signed a contract with the Swiss Sion, in which he received game number 88.

At the beginning of 2020, Sion terminated the player's contract, which put his sports career at risk. Now he maintains a page on Instagram, where he shares news and publishes photos.
