Chipolopolo Emmanuel Mayuka striker is pleased with his loan move to
French Ligue 1 side FC Sochaux from Southampton.
Mayuka on Monday joined Sochaux on a one year loan deal.
The ex-Young Boys striker says he is looking forward to start playing
for the French side.
“I’m happy to sign with FC Sochaux. I need to have more game time so I
had to be loaned from FC Southampton.I thanks Southampton for
understanding that,” he said.
Mayuka added:”I cant wait play my first game with Sochaux though now
I’m busy and focusing on Zambia game against Ghana. This is most
important.”
He scored one goal since he joined Southampton from Swiss club Young
Boys a year ago.
way to go bro.All the best.
Mayuka just because you are on loan, it doesn’t mean you will be guaranteed of a position you also have to work hard, fight for position and showcase your talents….loan moves can make and also break you!!
@ Jay Jay…Well said bakaamba!! i can not say more than you have rightly said! Go for it young man and live your dreams! all the best Mayuka
You don’t get loaned to a team which will put you on the bench, it’s a step down there and he will play week in week out .
good advice jay-jay.
mayuka, sonny, don’t loose heart.
this is not a setback but a blessing in disguise.
seize this opportunity and soldier on.
good luck.

Its very possible for a player to seat it out if he is not on par or if a new manager comes in during the course of the season….. just like record signings are benched when they don’t perform at their new clubs, when a player is loaned out what is only negotiated is payment of his weekly salary between the clubs ie the percentage to contributed by the “loanee” club. One Fabio from Manchester United spent the rest of last season on the bench at QPR.
Does he speak french? He needs to understand the instructions of the coach clearly, i think he will make better money in france and i believe he will be motivated to play well because French teams are serious not the depressed English clubs with their grampy people, besides the french have supper nice foods, this guy will enjoy, the English cant cook they only eat Chips with Fish and drink Tea, good diet is as important in sport as training nowander the spaniads excel in almost every sport, they are the masters of cuisine like no other mans Business, I always wonder why England is famous with footaball, because they cant even run, he must have been infected with the same virus, i hope more of our players will head this way not finished England!
ALL THE BEST BA KULU
@ jay jay, you are 99.9% correct! It was really bad for our boy not even being on bench. It was my hope to either loan him to championship (in fact wigan wanted to buy him) or french legue 1(which has been done). All the best Mayuka!
