Cameroon international James Eto’o has officially signed with CSKA Sofia in the Bulgerian first division from Botev Plovdiv for a transfer fee of €1 million.
The 23-year-old was the club’s top choice after a fantastic season with rivals Botev
Eto’o’s tenure at Botev Plovdiv was marked by steady growth and development. Arriving in September 2021 from Boulogne, the Cameroonian midfielder quickly established himself as a key cog in the team’s engine room.
Over the course of 100 appearances, he demonstrated his versatility and tenacity, contributing with goals and providing crucial support in both defensive and attacking phases.
His standout performance came during the 2023-24 season, where he featured prominently in 31 league matches, crowning the season with the Bulgerian cup
Before his stint at Botev, Eto’o honed his skills at Nantes II and Boulogne. While his goal tally was modest during these early years, the experience gained in competitive environments proved invaluable. The transition to Botev Plovdiv allowed him to flourish, as he adapted to the rigors of top-flight football, ultimately earning a reputation as a reliable and hardworking midfielder.
CSKA Sofia, a club synonymous with success in Bulgarian football, boasts an illustrious history filled with 31 league titles and 22 cup triumphs.
Formed 76-years-ago, CSKA has been on a quest to reclaim its dominance in Bulgarian football since it’s last Bulgerian cup win in 2021. Last season, they finished third out of 16
With Eto’o now in the fold, CSKA Sofia is poised to enhance its midfield dynamics. His experience and tactical awareness are expected to play a crucial role as the club aims for silverware in both domestic and European competitions this season.
