Beckamenga introduced to Nantes
I reported a few weeks back how Christian Beckamenga was on his way to France. A couple of weeks back he was officially presented to the French media by his new club Nantes.
The Cameroonian striker who impressed during his spell with Persib Bandung last season has been given the number 20 shirt but he has yet to make his deut in the French second division.
Still only 21 years old Le Becks (!) first appeared in the region with Malaysian side PKNS back in 2004 before moving to Negeri Sembilan a year later. He spent last season with Maung Bandung before being enticed to Europe.
Earlier today I found an interview with him but I lost the link! In effect what he said was that Asian football was good, the players small but technically very good. He also said a German second division club were interested in him as well as a couple of other French sides, Metz and Marseilles.
