- 34YO Tawamba has taken a step downwards by joining Al Tai
- The defender cum striker is hoping to improve the club that remains winless after two League games
Veteran Cameroonian forward Léandre Gaël Tawamba Kana has completed a switch to Saudi Arabia First Division side Al Tai on a one-year contract with an option for an additional season.
The 34-year-old was signed and unveiled on Wednesday by the club management in an effort to improve their frontline for the rest of the new season.
The second tier club becomes the third Saudi Arabia outfit the Al Tawoon legend will represent after spending last season at Al-Okhdood Club, where he scored five goals in 29 appearances for the club.
This switch to the Knight of The North is a massive recruitment for the club owned by the country’s ministry of Sports as they hope to build a formidable squad for coach Aleksandar Ilić to achieve a return to the Saudi Pro League after just a season in the second tier.
Al Tai have had a slow start of the season, scoring just one point from two games so far, which leaves them in the relegation zone.
Tawamba has joined his mates in training and could make his debut on Friday away to Al Ain in a fixture counting for match day three of the Division One championship.
If Tawamba hits the performances he is noted for, he time on the books of the club will create good memories for all involved as he did at Al Tawoon.
The man who played for Cameroon’s U-20 and senior national team on eight occasions but never featured in a senior major tournament.
