Popularly nicknamed '''''Doctor''''' for his tactical acumen, he was a renowned [[midfielder]] for [[Kaizer Chiefs]] and the [[South Africa national football team|South African national team]]. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers in the history of [[Soccer in South Africa|South African football]].&lt;ref name=TUT&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.tut.ac.za/newsroom/all-news/2026/tut-confers-honorary-doctorate-on-kaizer-chiefs-legend-doctor-khumalo.php|title=TUT confers honorary doctorate on Kaizer Chiefs legend Doctor Khumalo|last=Mkize|first=Phumla|work=Tshwane University of Technology|date=30 April 2026|accessdate=20 May 2026}}&lt;/ref&gt; After his farewell match for Kaizer Chiefs in 2004, Executive Chairman [[Kaizer Motaung]] retired his No. 15 jersey in honour of his legacy and contribution to the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.kaizerchiefs.com/club/history|title=History|work=Kaizer Chiefs Football Club|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt;

==Career==
I hane to bọlu ọdọ 1984 nwu Swallows Reserves, Khumalo then went to Kaizer Chiefs, where he initially played for the junior team. His father, [[Eliakim Khumalo]], a renowned player of the 1970s and early 1980s, served as his mentor. Khumalo was promoted to the senior team by coach [[Ted Dumitru]] the following year, when he started a game against arch rivals [[Orlando Pirates Football Club|Orlando Pirates]].

Khumalo went on to become a star player for Kaizer Chiefs and did not play for any other South African football club, only leaving them for short overseas playing periods – he signed with FIFA agent Marcelo Houseman who first took him to [[Argentina|Argentinian]] club [[Ferro Carril Oeste]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://laferropedia.com/jugador-653/|title=LaFerropedia|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt; for six months in 1995, while in 1996 and 1997 he played for the [[Columbus Crew]] of [[Major League Soccer]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/doctor-khumalo|title=Doctor Khumalo &amp;#124; MLSsoccer.com|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt;

The high-point of Khumalo's football career was the 1990s; he was part of the Kaizer Chiefs teams that won three South African league championship titles and five knockout trophies and was also voted South African Footballer of the Year in 1992. During his career at the club, he played in a total of 397 league and cup games, scoring 75 goals.

After the re-admission of [[South Africa national football team|South Africa]] to [[FIFA]] in 1992, Khumalo was selected to be a member of the South African squad for its first official international match in July of the same year, against [[Cameroon national football team|Cameroon]]. South Africa won the match 1–0, due to a penalty scored by Khumalo. He was also a leading member of the winning South African national team at the [[1996 African Nations Cup]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jun/24/south-africa-cup-of-nations-mandela-1996-bafana-bafana |title=‘Mandela brought extra pressure’: the story of South Africa’s Afcon triumph|last=Hawkey|first=Ian|work=The Guardian|date=24 June 2019|accessdate=15 November 2023}}&lt;/ref&gt; He also represented South Africa in the [[1998 Football World Cup]]. Throughout his whole international career, he played for South Africa 50 times (twice as captain), scoring nine goals&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/zaf-recintlp.html|title=South Africa - International Appearances|website=[[RSSSF]]|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt; making him the 13th most capped South African footballer.

One of Doctor Khumalo's most memorable games was perhaps the 1996 Mandela Cup match, where South Africa played against [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]]. [[Phil Masinga]] scored the first goal from Doctor Khumalo's corner kick. Khumalo then scored the second goal to make the score 2–0 in favour of the South Africans. Unfortunately for Bafana, Brazil came back in the second half, scoring three goals, to win the encounter 3–2.

After retiring from professional football in 2002, Khumalo moved into coaching.

Khumalo was voted 62nd in the [[SABC3's Great South Africans|Top 100 Great South Africans]] in 2004.

From 2017 to 2018, he was the technical director of [[Baroka F.C.|Baroka]].&lt;ref&gt;[https://www.timeslive.co.za/sport/soccer/2018-06-28-baroka-fc-parts-ways-with-technical-director-doctor-khumalo/ Baroka FC part ways with technical director Doctor Khumalo]. timeslive.co.za. 28 June 2018.&lt;/ref&gt;

==Coaching career==
He has a [[South African Football Association|SAFA]] Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 coaching licences, an [[English Football Association]] licence which he got in 2005 and a [[UEFA]] B licence through the [[German Football Federation]] in 2007. He began his coaching career at Kaizer Chiefs, where he served as co-coach with Donald Khuse during the 2002–03 season before becoming an assistant coach under Ted Dumitru. He later moved into youth development, serving as Kaizer Chiefs Under-17 coach&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.kaizerchiefs.com/Default.asp?cid=13804 |title=..:: Kaizer Chiefs :: |access-date=14 November 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081216070515/http://www.kaizerchiefs.com/Default.asp?cid=13804 |archive-date=16 December 2008 }}&lt;/ref&gt; before taking charge of the [[South Africa national under-17 soccer team|South Africa national under-17 team]].

The movie is about Themba, a young and ambitious football youth, who is faced with poverty, AIDS and violence, but eventually makes his way on to the South African national team. The film is based on a novel by Lutz van Dijk and premiered at the Berlinale 2010.

His father, [[Eliakim Khumalo]], a renowned player of the 1970s and early 1980s, served as his mentor. Khumalo was promoted to the senior team by coach [[Ted Dumitru]] the following year, when he started a game against arch rivals [[Orlando Pirates Football Club|Orlando Pirates]].

Khumalo went on to become a star player for Kaizer Chiefs and did not play for any other South African football club, only leaving them for short overseas playing periods – he signed with FIFA agent Marcelo Houseman who first took him to [[Argentina|Argentinian]] club [[Ferro Carril Oeste]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://laferropedia.com/jugador-653/|title=LaFerropedia|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt; for six months in 1995, while in 1996 and 1997 he played for the [[Columbus Crew]] of [[Major League Soccer]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/doctor-khumalo|title=Doctor Khumalo &amp;#124; MLSsoccer.com|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt;

The high-point of Khumalo's football career was the 1990s; he was part of the Kaizer Chiefs teams that won three South African league championship titles and five knockout trophies and was also voted South African Footballer of the Year in 1992. During his career at the club, he played in a total of 397 league and cup games, scoring 75 goals.

After the re-admission of [[South Africa national football team|South Africa]] to [[FIFA]] in 1992, Khumalo was selected to be a member of the South African squad for its first official international match in July of the same year, against [[Cameroon national football team|Cameroon]]. South Africa won the match 1–0, due to a penalty scored by Khumalo. He was also a leading member of the winning South African national team at the [[1996 African Nations Cup]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jun/24/south-africa-cup-of-nations-mandela-1996-bafana-bafana |title=‘Mandela brought extra pressure’: the story of South Africa’s Afcon triumph|last=Hawkey|first=Ian|work=The Guardian|date=24 June 2019|accessdate=15 November 2023}}&lt;/ref&gt; He also represented South Africa in the [[1998 Football World Cup]].

'''Theophilus Doctorson Khumalo'''  (ku ma bi ọjọ 26 June 1967) chí ẹnẹ South African former kì ya ri [[Association football|soccer]] akwobi. Popularly nicknamed '''''Doctor''''' for his tactical acumen, he was a renowned [[midfielder]] for [[Kaizer Chiefs]] and the [[South Africa national football team|South African national team]]. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers in the history of [[Soccer in South Africa|South African football]].&lt;ref name=TUT&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.tut.ac.za/newsroom/all-news/2026/tut-confers-honorary-doctorate-on-kaizer-chiefs-legend-doctor-khumalo.php|title=TUT confers honorary doctorate on Kaizer Chiefs legend Doctor Khumalo|last=Mkize|first=Phumla|work=Tshwane University of Technology|date=30 April 2026|accessdate=20 May 2026}}&lt;/ref&gt; After his farewell match for Kaizer Chiefs in 2004, Executive Chairman [[Kaizer Motaung]] retired his No. 15 jersey in honour of his legacy and contribution to the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.kaizerchiefs.com/club/history|title=History|work=Kaizer Chiefs Football Club|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt;

==Career==
I hane to bọlu ọdọ 1984 nwu Swallows Reserves, Khumalo nwọ leti Kaizer Chiefs, ugbo kì rọ nwu team kèkèlè ejodudu. Attah nwu[[Eliakim Khumalo]], a renowned player of the 1970s and early 1980s, served as his mentor. Khumalo was promoted to the senior team by coach [[Ted Dumitru]] the following year, when he started a game against arch rivals [[Orlando Pirates Football Club|Orlando Pirates]].

Khumalo went on to become a star player for Kaizer Chiefs and did not play for any other South African football club, only leaving them for short overseas playing periods – he signed with FIFA agent Marcelo Houseman who first took him to [[Argentina|Argentinian]] club [[Ferro Carril Oeste]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://laferropedia.com/jugador-653/|title=LaFerropedia|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt; for six months in 1995, while in 1996 and 1997 he played for the [[Columbus Crew]] of [[Major League Soccer]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/doctor-khumalo|title=Doctor Khumalo &amp;#124; MLSsoccer.com|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt;

The high-point of Khumalo's football career was the 1990s; he was part of the Kaizer Chiefs teams that won three South African league championship titles and five knockout trophies and was also voted South African Footballer of the Year in 1992. During his career at the club, he played in a total of 397 league and cup games, scoring 75 goals.

After the re-admission of [[South Africa national football team|South Africa]] to [[FIFA]] in 1992, Khumalo was selected to be a member of the South African squad for its first official international match in July of the same year, against [[Cameroon national football team|Cameroon]]. South Africa won the match 1–0, due to a penalty scored by Khumalo. He was also a leading member of the winning South African national team at the [[1996 African Nations Cup]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jun/24/south-africa-cup-of-nations-mandela-1996-bafana-bafana |title=‘Mandela brought extra pressure’: the story of South Africa’s Afcon triumph|last=Hawkey|first=Ian|work=The Guardian|date=24 June 2019|accessdate=15 November 2023}}&lt;/ref&gt; He also represented South Africa in the [[1998 Football World Cup]]. Throughout his whole international career, he played for South Africa 50 times (twice as captain), scoring nine goals&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/zaf-recintlp.html|title=South Africa - International Appearances|website=[[RSSSF]]|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt; making him the 13th most capped South African footballer.

One of Doctor Khumalo's most memorable games was perhaps the 1996 Mandela Cup match, where South Africa played against [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]]. [[Phil Masinga]] scored the first goal from Doctor Khumalo's corner kick. Khumalo then scored the second goal to make the score 2–0 in favour of the South Africans. Unfortunately for Bafana, Brazil came back in the second half, scoring three goals, to win the encounter 3–2.

After retiring from professional football in 2002, Khumalo moved into coaching.

Khumalo was voted 62nd in the [[SABC3's Great South Africans|Top 100 Great South Africans]] in 2004.

From 2017 to 2018, he was the technical director of [[Baroka F.C.|Baroka]].&lt;ref&gt;[https://www.timeslive.co.za/sport/soccer/2018-06-28-baroka-fc-parts-ways-with-technical-director-doctor-khumalo/ Baroka FC part ways with technical director Doctor Khumalo]. timeslive.co.za. 28 June 2018.&lt;/ref&gt;

==Coaching career==
He has a [[South African Football Association|SAFA]] Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 coaching licences, an [[English Football Association]] licence which he got in 2005 and a [[UEFA]] B licence through the [[German Football Federation]] in 2007. He began his coaching career at Kaizer Chiefs, where he served as co-coach with Donald Khuse during the 2002–03 season before becoming an assistant coach under Ted Dumitru. He later moved into youth development, serving as Kaizer Chiefs Under-17 coach&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.kaizerchiefs.com/Default.asp?cid=13804 |title=..:: Kaizer Chiefs :: |access-date=14 November 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081216070515/http://www.kaizerchiefs.com/Default.asp?cid=13804 |archive-date=16 December 2008 }}&lt;/ref&gt; before taking charge of the [[South Africa national under-17 soccer team|South Africa national under-17 team]].

==Acting career==
Khumalo made his film acting debut with the German/South African production Themba.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.thembathemovie.com/|title=Themba The Movie – DIY Blog|accessdate=5 March 2021}}&lt;/ref&gt; He plays himself as the coach of the under 21s. The movie is about Themba, a young and ambitious football youth, who is faced with poverty, AIDS and violence, but eventually makes his way on to the South African national team. The film is based on a novel by Lutz van Dijk and premiered at the Berlinale 2010.

===Manchester United===
Arriving in England, Djemba-Djemba established his aggressive style on his debut against [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] in the [[FA Community Shield]], with a tackle on Arsenal's [[Sol Campbell]] which [[Arsène Wenger]] called &quot;obscene&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |first=Christopher |last=Davies |title=It's business as usual as for Wenger and Arsenal |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/2409616/Its-business-as-usual-as-for-Wenger-and-Arsenal.html |work=Telegraph.co.uk |publisher=Telegraph Media Group |date=16 August 2003 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

In 18 months at [[Old Trafford]], Djemba-Djemba found it difficult to maintain a period of sustained form, and he was eventually unable to establish himself as a player capable of eventually succeeding the ageing captain [[Roy Keane]] in the centre of the United midfield. A highlight during his United career was when he scored a looping volley against [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] in the [[Football League Cup|League Cup]]. With the score at 2–2 and three minutes of extra time left, [[Quinton Fortune]] swung in a corner which reached Djemba-Djemba, who hit it first time and it looped over Leeds goalkeeper [[Paul Robinson (footballer, born 1979)|Paul Robinson]] which secured a 3–2 win and progression to the next round.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Leeds 2–3 Man Utd |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/league_cup/3204813.stm |work=BBC Sport |publisher=British Broadcasting Corporation |date=28 October 2003 |access-date=16 September 2009 }}&lt;/ref&gt; He scored only once more for United, in a 5–0 [[UEFA Champions League]] win over Greek side [[Panathinaikos F.C.|Panathinaikos]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Man Utd wreak Greek havoc |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/champions_league/3109724.stm |publisher=British Broadcasting Corporation |date=16 September 2003 |access-date=3 November 2009 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Aston Villa===
Djemba-Djemba was sold to [[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] in the January 2005 transfer window for a fee of £1.5&amp;nbsp;million.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/a/aston_villa/4221969.stm |title=Djemba-Djemba wraps up Villa move |publisher=BBC |date=31 January 2005 |access-date=21 October 2013 |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306121900/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/a/aston_villa/4221969.stm |archive-date=6 March 2016}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, the move did little to restore the player's reputation as he found it difficult to move ahead of [[Gavin McCann]] and [[Steven Davis]] in Villa's midfield. After being played only once, as a late substitute against Arsenal in the first ever game at the [[Emirates Stadium]],&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |first=Simon |last=Austin |title=Arsenal 1–1 Aston Villa |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/4786655.stm |work=BBC Sport |publisher=British Broadcasting Corporation |date=20 August 2006 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt; by new Villa manager [[Martin O'Neill]] on the first day of the [[2006-07 in English football|2006–07 season]], Djemba-Djemba was loaned out to Championship club Burnley for the remainder of the season in the January transfer window.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/burnley/6255757.stm |title=Burnley seal Djemba-Djemba loan |publisher=BBC |date=12 January 2007 |access-date=21 October 2013 |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160307084733/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/burnley/6255757.stm |archive-date=7 March 2016}}&lt;/ref&gt;

====Ma mẹ nw na ti Burnley ====
Djemba-Djemba made his first appearance for Burnley on 13 January 2007 against [[Southampton FC|Southampton]], playing the full 90 minutes.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_div_1/6236747.stm |title=Southampton 0–0 Burnley |publisher=BBC |date=13 January 2007 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Early in his time at [[Turf Moor]], he was sent off for the [[Lancashire]] side after a second bookable offence at [[Derby County F.C.|Derby County]];&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2007/jan/31/match.derbycounty |title=Managers sent to the stands as Howard keeps Derby soaring |work=The Guardian |date=31 January 2007 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt; however he impressed with his skillful and effective play during his loan spell.

During July 2007, all signs pointed to Djemba-Djemba leaving [[Villa Park]] after he was the only member of the first-team squad not to be included in the [[North American]] tour and his contract was subsequently terminated by Aston Villa.&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;&gt;{{cite news |url=http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/now-eric-djemba-djemba-289626 |title=Where are they now? Eric Djemba-Djemba |publisher=Birmingham Mail |date=6 November 2012 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Qatar SC===
Following his departure from [[Aston Villa]], Djemba-Djemba joined [[Qatar SC]].&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;/&gt; He only played one season at the [[Qatar]]-based club, but managed to get his football career back on track.

===Odense BK===
On 16 July 2008, Djemba-Djemba signed a three-year contract with Danish side [[Odense Boldklub|OB]], the contract was later extended with a year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Ex-Red Devil joins Odense|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/3844950/ex-red-devil-joins-odense|publisher=Sky Sports|date=20 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; He previously went on a trial with the club&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Tidligere Man United-spiller til prøvetræning i OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/fodbold/tidligere-man-united-spiller-til-proevetraening-i-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; and made his Odense debut against former club Aston Villa in the [[Intertoto Cup]].&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;/&gt; Odense drew the match 1–1, losing 2–1 on aggregate.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Malam |first1=Colin |title=InterToto Cup: Martin O'Neill pleads with Gareth Barry as Aston Villa reach Uefa Cup |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/2462546/InterToto-Cup-Martin-ONeill-pleads-with-Gareth-Barry-as-Aston-Villa-reach-Uefa-Cup.html |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Telegraph |date=20 July 2008}}&lt;/ref&gt; In his career in Odense, Djemba-Djemba impressed the club's fans, with his good ball skills and great performances. In his first season as an Odense player, he played good football, and was described by many as the league's best player.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Jackson |first1=Jamie |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba: 'I was happy at Manchester United – I've no regrets |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/nov/16/eric-djemba-djemba-manchester-united |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Observer |date=16 November 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2009, in the 72nd minute against [[Esbjerg fB|Esbjerg]] away, Djemba-Djemba became the first player in the Danish league to assist with his sock, as the sole of his right boot had come off, forcing him to finish the game with one boot.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|title=OB sejrede på nyt stadion|website=www.ob.dk|access-date=11 August 2016|archive-date=12 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160812030549/http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|url-status=dead}}&lt;/ref&gt; Later that year, Djemba-Djemba was among three other players to be nominated for the SAS Liga player of the year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=[Three foreigners can be player of the year]|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Tre-udlaendinge-kan-blive-aarets-spiller|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=5 October 2009|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In the summer of 2010, Djemba-Djemba was linked with a move back to England to join [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and Italian side [[U.S. Lecce|Lecce]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Italienere lurer på Djemba-Djemba|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Italienere-lurer-paa-Djemba-Djemba|publisher=Bold.dsk|language=da|date=12 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba in Baggies link|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6279731/djemba-djemba-in-baggies-link|publisher=Sky Sorts|date=26 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; After travelling to England for talks, the move broke down, and this led to accusations against West Brom by the club and Djemba-Djemba himself.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Baggies end Djemba interest|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6283155/baggies-end-djemba-interest|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Odense refute Baggies claims|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6284604/odense-refute-baggies-claims|publisher=Sky Sports|date=29 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba blasts Baggies|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6289684/djemba-djemba-blasts-baggies|publisher=Sky Sports|date=1 August 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

At the end of the 2011–12 season, Djemba-Djemba's future at OB was uncertain after his contract expired. Despite expected negotiations,&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba: Måske forlænger jeg med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/oevrig-sport/djemba-djemba-maaske-forlaenger-jeg-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=23 August 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba vil forlænge med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/djemba-djemba-vil-forlaenge-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba instead left the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Mendy og Djemba-Djemba forlader OB|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Mendy-og-Djemba-Djemba-forlader-OB|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=24 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; The year before, he, along with [[Peter Utaka]], had been told by the club's officials that their contracts would not be renewed.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Avis: Djemba-Djemba og Utaka forlader OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/avis-djemba-djemba-og-utaka-forlader-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; As a result of their contracts not being renewed, the club decided to release players sooner rather than later.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=OB: Overvejer salg af Utaka og Djemba|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Hapoel Tel Aviv===
On 14 August 2012, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Israeli club [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Djemba-Djemba signed for Hapoel: I found a warm home |url=http://www.one.co.il/Article/204294.html |language=he |publisher=ONE |date=14 August 2012 |access-date=14 August 2012 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba played a total of 28 league games with the [[Tel Aviv]]-based team.

On 24 July 2013, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Serbian side [[FK Partizan|Partizan]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Đemba Đemba potpisao za Šampione |url=http://www.sr.partizan.rs/67900-67900/ |language=sr |publisher=partizan.rs |date=24 July 2013 |access-date=24 July 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his debut in a Champions League qualifying match away to [[PFC Ludogorets Razgrad|Ludogorets Razgrad]] on 31 July 2013, coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |title=Sale Buljavi, brate moj! |website=www.mozzartsport.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803152752/http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |archive-date=3 August 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, Djemba-Djemba hardly played for Partizan during the first half of the season. The club's signing of [[Nikola Drinčić]] on 20 December meant that Djemba-Djemba became surplus to requirements and his contract was terminated on 23 December 2013.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Partizan raskinuo ugovor sa Đemba Đembom |trans-title=Partizan terminated the contract with Djemba Djemba |url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/sport.294.html:469954-Partizan-raskinuo-ugovor-sa-Djemba-Djembom |work=Novosti.rs |publisher=Kompanija Novosti |date=23 December 2013 |access-date=23 December 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba once went on three month unpaid at the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |date=9 March 2014 |title=St Mirren midfielder Eric Djemba-Djemba keen to extend his stay in Scottish football |publisher=Daily Record |url=http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/st-mirren-midfielder-eric-djemba-djemba-3222651? |access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===St Mirren===
On 5 February 2014, Djemba-Djemba signed a short-term deal with [[Scottish Premiership]] club [[St Mirren F.C.|St Mirren]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |title=Saints sign Djemba-Djemba |url=http://www.saintmirren.net/pages/?p=30679 |publisher=saintmirren.net |date=5 February 2014 |access-date=5 February 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140221233146/http://www.saintmirren.net/pages/?p=30679 |archive-date=21 February 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; He said he hoped his move to St Mirren can help him gain a place in the [[Cameroon national football team|Cameroon]] squad for the [[2014 FIFA World Cup|2014 World Cup]] in Brazil.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba hopes St Miren move can force a World cup place |url=http://sport.stv.tv/football/clubs/st-mirren/263108-eric-djemba-djemba-hopes-st-mirren-move-can-force-a-world-cup-place/ |publisher=STV Sport |date=6 February 2014 |access-date=6 February 2014 |archive-date=6 February 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150206191000/http://sport.stv.tv/football/clubs/st-mirren/263108-eric-djemba-djemba-hopes-st-mirren-move-can-force-a-world-cup-place/ |url-status=dead }}&lt;/ref&gt; Upon joining the club, manager [[Danny Lennon]] described Djemba-Djemba as the club's biggest signing.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Eric Djemba Djemba is St Mirren's biggest signing ever according to manager Danny Lennon|url=http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/458429/Eric-Djemba-Djemba-is-St-Mirren-s-biggest-signing-ever-according-to-manager-Danny-Lennon|publisher=Daily Express|date=6 February 2014|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba made his debut for the club, in the [[2013–14 Scottish Cup#Fifth round|fifth round of the Scottish Cup]], as St Mirren lost 2–1 against [[Dundee United F.C.|Dundee United]]. After making just three appearances in all competitions, he was released by the club at the end of the season and also failed to secure a place on the Cameroon squad for the world cup.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/27492630 | title=St Mirren: Eric Djemba-Djemba among Buddies departures | publisher=bbc.co.uk | date=20 May 2014 | access-date=20 May 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Aston Villa===
Djemba-Djemba was sold to [[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] in the January 2005 transfer window for a fee of £1.5&amp;nbsp;million.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/a/aston_villa/4221969.stm |title=Djemba-Djemba wraps up Villa move |publisher=BBC |date=31 January 2005 |access-date=21 October 2013 |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306121900/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/a/aston_villa/4221969.stm |archive-date=6 March 2016}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, the move did little to restore the player's reputation as he found it difficult to move ahead of [[Gavin McCann]] and [[Steven Davis]] in Villa's midfield. After being played only once, as a late substitute against Arsenal in the first ever game at the [[Emirates Stadium]],&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |first=Simon |last=Austin |title=Arsenal 1–1 Aston Villa |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/4786655.stm |work=BBC Sport |publisher=British Broadcasting Corporation |date=20 August 2006 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt; by new Villa manager [[Martin O'Neill]] on the first day of the [[2006-07 in English football|2006–07 season]], Djemba-Djemba was loaned out to Championship club Burnley for the remainder of the season in the January transfer window.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/burnley/6255757.stm |title=Burnley seal Djemba-Djemba loan |publisher=BBC |date=12 January 2007 |access-date=21 October 2013 |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160307084733/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/burnley/6255757.stm |archive-date=7 March 2016}}&lt;/ref&gt;

====Ma mẹ nw na ti Burnley ====
Djemba-Djemba made his first appearance for Burnley on 13 January 2007 against [[Southampton FC|Southampton]], playing the full 90 minutes.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_div_1/6236747.stm |title=Southampton 0–0 Burnley |publisher=BBC |date=13 January 2007 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Early in his time at [[Turf Moor]], he was sent off for the [[Lancashire]] side after a second bookable offence at [[Derby County F.C.|Derby County]];&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2007/jan/31/match.derbycounty |title=Managers sent to the stands as Howard keeps Derby soaring |work=The Guardian |date=31 January 2007 |access-date=21 October 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt; however he impressed with his skillful and effective play during his loan spell.

During July 2007, all signs pointed to Djemba-Djemba leaving [[Villa Park]] after he was the only member of the first-team squad not to be included in the [[North American]] tour and his contract was subsequently terminated by Aston Villa.&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;&gt;{{cite news |url=http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/now-eric-djemba-djemba-289626 |title=Where are they now?

===Qatar SC===
Following his departure from [[Aston Villa]], Djemba-Djemba joined [[Qatar SC]].&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;/&gt; He only played one season at the [[Qatar]]-based club, but managed to get his football career back on track.

===Odense BK===
On 16 July 2008, Djemba-Djemba signed a three-year contract with Danish side [[Odense Boldklub|OB]], the contract was later extended with a year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Ex-Red Devil joins Odense|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/3844950/ex-red-devil-joins-odense|publisher=Sky Sports|date=20 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; He previously went on a trial with the club&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Tidligere Man United-spiller til prøvetræning i OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/fodbold/tidligere-man-united-spiller-til-proevetraening-i-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; and made his Odense debut against former club Aston Villa in the [[Intertoto Cup]].&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;/&gt; Odense drew the match 1–1, losing 2–1 on aggregate.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Malam |first1=Colin |title=InterToto Cup: Martin O'Neill pleads with Gareth Barry as Aston Villa reach Uefa Cup |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/2462546/InterToto-Cup-Martin-ONeill-pleads-with-Gareth-Barry-as-Aston-Villa-reach-Uefa-Cup.html |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Telegraph |date=20 July 2008}}&lt;/ref&gt; In his career in Odense, Djemba-Djemba impressed the club's fans, with his good ball skills and great performances. In his first season as an Odense player, he played good football, and was described by many as the league's best player.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Jackson |first1=Jamie |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba: 'I was happy at Manchester United – I've no regrets |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/nov/16/eric-djemba-djemba-manchester-united |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Observer |date=16 November 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2009, in the 72nd minute against [[Esbjerg fB|Esbjerg]] away, Djemba-Djemba became the first player in the Danish league to assist with his sock, as the sole of his right boot had come off, forcing him to finish the game with one boot.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|title=OB sejrede på nyt stadion|website=www.ob.dk|access-date=11 August 2016|archive-date=12 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160812030549/http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|url-status=dead}}&lt;/ref&gt; Later that year, Djemba-Djemba was among three other players to be nominated for the SAS Liga player of the year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=[Three foreigners can be player of the year]|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Tre-udlaendinge-kan-blive-aarets-spiller|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=5 October 2009|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In the summer of 2010, Djemba-Djemba was linked with a move back to England to join [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and Italian side [[U.S. Lecce|Lecce]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Italienere lurer på Djemba-Djemba|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Italienere-lurer-paa-Djemba-Djemba|publisher=Bold.dsk|language=da|date=12 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba in Baggies link|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6279731/djemba-djemba-in-baggies-link|publisher=Sky Sorts|date=26 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; After travelling to England for talks, the move broke down, and this led to accusations against West Brom by the club and Djemba-Djemba himself.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Baggies end Djemba interest|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6283155/baggies-end-djemba-interest|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Odense refute Baggies claims|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6284604/odense-refute-baggies-claims|publisher=Sky Sports|date=29 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba blasts Baggies|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6289684/djemba-djemba-blasts-baggies|publisher=Sky Sports|date=1 August 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

At the end of the 2011–12 season, Djemba-Djemba's future at OB was uncertain after his contract expired. Despite expected negotiations,&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba: Måske forlænger jeg med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/oevrig-sport/djemba-djemba-maaske-forlaenger-jeg-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=23 August 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba vil forlænge med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/djemba-djemba-vil-forlaenge-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba instead left the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Mendy og Djemba-Djemba forlader OB|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Mendy-og-Djemba-Djemba-forlader-OB|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=24 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; The year before, he, along with [[Peter Utaka]], had been told by the club's officials that their contracts would not be renewed.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Avis: Djemba-Djemba og Utaka forlader OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/avis-djemba-djemba-og-utaka-forlader-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; As a result of their contracts not being renewed, the club decided to release players sooner rather than later.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=OB: Overvejer salg af Utaka og Djemba|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Hapoel Tel Aviv===
On 14 August 2012, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Israeli club [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Djemba-Djemba signed for Hapoel: I found a warm home |url=http://www.one.co.il/Article/204294.html |language=he |publisher=ONE |date=14 August 2012 |access-date=14 August 2012 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba played a total of 28 league games with the [[Tel Aviv]]-based team.

===Partizan===
On 24 July 2013, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Serbian side [[FK Partizan|Partizan]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Đemba Đemba potpisao za Šampione |url=http://www.sr.partizan.rs/67900-67900/ |language=sr |publisher=partizan.rs |date=24 July 2013 |access-date=24 July 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his debut in a Champions League qualifying match away to [[PFC Ludogorets Razgrad|Ludogorets Razgrad]] on 31 July 2013, coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |title=Sale Buljavi, brate moj! |website=www.mozzartsport.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803152752/http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |archive-date=3 August 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, Djemba-Djemba hardly played for Partizan during the first half of the season. The club's signing of [[Nikola Drinčić]] on 20 December meant that Djemba-Djemba became surplus to requirements and his contract was terminated on 23 December 2013.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Partizan raskinuo ugovor sa Đemba Đembom |trans-title=Partizan terminated the contract with Djemba Djemba |url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/sport.294.html:469954-Partizan-raskinuo-ugovor-sa-Djemba-Djembom |work=Novosti.rs |publisher=Kompanija Novosti |date=23 December 2013 |access-date=23 December 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba made his debut for the club, in the [[2013–14 Scottish Cup#Fifth round|fifth round of the Scottish Cup]], as St Mirren lost 2–1 against [[Dundee United F.C.|Dundee United]]. After making just three appearances in all competitions, he was released by the club at the end of the season and also failed to secure a place on the Cameroon squad for the world cup.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/27492630 | title=St Mirren: Eric Djemba-Djemba among Buddies departures | publisher=bbc.co.uk | date=20 May 2014 | access-date=20 May 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In his first season as an Odense player, he played good football, and was described by many as the league's best player.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Jackson |first1=Jamie |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba: 'I was happy at Manchester United – I've no regrets |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/nov/16/eric-djemba-djemba-manchester-united |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Observer |date=16 November 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2009, in the 72nd minute against [[Esbjerg fB|Esbjerg]] away, Djemba-Djemba became the first player in the Danish league to assist with his sock, as the sole of his right boot had come off, forcing him to finish the game with one boot.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|title=OB sejrede på nyt stadion|website=www.ob.dk|access-date=11 August 2016|archive-date=12 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160812030549/http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|url-status=dead}}&lt;/ref&gt; Later that year, Djemba-Djemba was among three other players to be nominated for the SAS Liga player of the year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=[Three foreigners can be player of the year]|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Tre-udlaendinge-kan-blive-aarets-spiller|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=5 October 2009|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In the summer of 2010, Djemba-Djemba was linked with a move back to England to join [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and Italian side [[U.S. Lecce|Lecce]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Italienere lurer på Djemba-Djemba|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Italienere-lurer-paa-Djemba-Djemba|publisher=Bold.dsk|language=da|date=12 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba in Baggies link|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6279731/djemba-djemba-in-baggies-link|publisher=Sky Sorts|date=26 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; After travelling to England for talks, the move broke down, and this led to accusations against West Brom by the club and Djemba-Djemba himself.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Baggies end Djemba interest|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6283155/baggies-end-djemba-interest|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Odense refute Baggies claims|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6284604/odense-refute-baggies-claims|publisher=Sky Sports|date=29 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba blasts Baggies|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6289684/djemba-djemba-blasts-baggies|publisher=Sky Sports|date=1 August 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

At the end of the 2011–12 season, Djemba-Djemba's future at OB was uncertain after his contract expired. Despite expected negotiations,&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba: Måske forlænger jeg med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/oevrig-sport/djemba-djemba-maaske-forlaenger-jeg-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=23 August 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba vil forlænge med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/djemba-djemba-vil-forlaenge-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba instead left the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Mendy og Djemba-Djemba forlader OB|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Mendy-og-Djemba-Djemba-forlader-OB|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=24 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; The year before, he, along with [[Peter Utaka]], had been told by the club's officials that their contracts would not be renewed.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Avis: Djemba-Djemba og Utaka forlader OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/avis-djemba-djemba-og-utaka-forlader-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; As a result of their contracts not being renewed, the club decided to release players sooner rather than later.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=OB: Overvejer salg af Utaka og Djemba|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Hapoel Tel Aviv===
On 14 August 2012, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Israeli club [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Djemba-Djemba signed for Hapoel: I found a warm home |url=http://www.one.co.il/Article/204294.html |language=he |publisher=ONE |date=14 August 2012 |access-date=14 August 2012 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba played a total of 28 league games with the [[Tel Aviv]]-based team.

===Partizan===
On 24 July 2013, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Serbian side [[FK Partizan|Partizan]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Đemba Đemba potpisao za Šampione |url=http://www.sr.partizan.rs/67900-67900/ |language=sr |publisher=partizan.rs |date=24 July 2013 |access-date=24 July 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his debut in a Champions League qualifying match away to [[PFC Ludogorets Razgrad|Ludogorets Razgrad]] on 31 July 2013, coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |title=Sale Buljavi, brate moj! |website=www.mozzartsport.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803152752/http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |archive-date=3 August 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, Djemba-Djemba hardly played for Partizan during the first half of the season. The club's signing of [[Nikola Drinčić]] on 20 December meant that Djemba-Djemba became surplus to requirements and his contract was terminated on 23 December 2013.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Partizan raskinuo ugovor sa Đemba Đembom |trans-title=Partizan terminated the contract with Djemba Djemba |url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/sport.294.html:469954-Partizan-raskinuo-ugovor-sa-Djemba-Djembom |work=Novosti.rs |publisher=Kompanija Novosti |date=23 December 2013 |access-date=23 December 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba made his debut for the club, in the [[2013–14 Scottish Cup#Fifth round|fifth round of the Scottish Cup]], as St Mirren lost 2–1 against [[Dundee United F.C.|Dundee United]]. After making just three appearances in all competitions, he was released by the club at the end of the season and also failed to secure a place on the Cameroon squad for the world cup.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/27492630 | title=St Mirren: Eric Djemba-Djemba among Buddies departures | publisher=bbc.co.uk | date=20 May 2014 | access-date=20 May 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Odense BK===
On 16 July 2008, Djemba-Djemba signed a three-year contract with Danish side [[Odense Boldklub|OB]], the contract was later extended with a year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Ex-Red Devil joins Odense|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/3844950/ex-red-devil-joins-odense|publisher=Sky Sports|date=20 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; He previously went on a trial with the club&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Tidligere Man United-spiller til prøvetræning i OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/fodbold/tidligere-man-united-spiller-til-proevetraening-i-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; and made his Odense debut against former club Aston Villa in the [[Intertoto Cup]].&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;/&gt; Odense drew the match 1–1, losing 2–1 on aggregate.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Malam |first1=Colin |title=InterToto Cup: Martin O'Neill pleads with Gareth Barry as Aston Villa reach Uefa Cup |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/2462546/InterToto-Cup-Martin-ONeill-pleads-with-Gareth-Barry-as-Aston-Villa-reach-Uefa-Cup.html |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Telegraph |date=20 July 2008}}&lt;/ref&gt; In his career in Odense, Djemba-Djemba impressed the club's fans, with his good ball skills and great performances. In his first season as an Odense player, he played good football, and was described by many as the league's best player.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Jackson |first1=Jamie |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba: 'I was happy at Manchester United – I've no regrets |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/nov/16/eric-djemba-djemba-manchester-united |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Observer |date=16 November 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2009, in the 72nd minute against [[Esbjerg fB|Esbjerg]] away, Djemba-Djemba became the first player in the Danish league to assist with his sock, as the sole of his right boot had come off, forcing him to finish the game with one boot.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|title=OB sejrede på nyt stadion|website=www.ob.dk|access-date=11 August 2016|archive-date=12 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160812030549/http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|url-status=dead}}&lt;/ref&gt; Later that year, Djemba-Djemba was among three other players to be nominated for the SAS Liga player of the year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=[Three foreigners can be player of the year]|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Tre-udlaendinge-kan-blive-aarets-spiller|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=5 October 2009|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In the summer of 2010, Djemba-Djemba was linked with a move back to England to join [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and Italian side [[U.S. Lecce|Lecce]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Italienere lurer på Djemba-Djemba|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Italienere-lurer-paa-Djemba-Djemba|publisher=Bold.dsk|language=da|date=12 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba in Baggies link|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6279731/djemba-djemba-in-baggies-link|publisher=Sky Sorts|date=26 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; After travelling to England for talks, the move broke down, and this led to accusations against West Brom by the club and Djemba-Djemba himself.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Baggies end Djemba interest|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6283155/baggies-end-djemba-interest|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Odense refute Baggies claims|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6284604/odense-refute-baggies-claims|publisher=Sky Sports|date=29 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba blasts Baggies|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6289684/djemba-djemba-blasts-baggies|publisher=Sky Sports|date=1 August 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

At the end of the 2011–12 season, Djemba-Djemba's future at OB was uncertain after his contract expired. Despite expected negotiations,&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba: Måske forlænger jeg med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/oevrig-sport/djemba-djemba-maaske-forlaenger-jeg-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=23 August 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba vil forlænge med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/djemba-djemba-vil-forlaenge-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba instead left the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Mendy og Djemba-Djemba forlader OB|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Mendy-og-Djemba-Djemba-forlader-OB|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=24 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; The year before, he, along with [[Peter Utaka]], had been told by the club's officials that their contracts would not be renewed.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Avis: Djemba-Djemba og Utaka forlader OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/avis-djemba-djemba-og-utaka-forlader-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; As a result of their contracts not being renewed, the club decided to release players sooner rather than later.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=OB: Overvejer salg af Utaka og Djemba|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Hapoel Tel Aviv===
On 14 August 2012, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Israeli club [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Djemba-Djemba signed for Hapoel: I found a warm home |url=http://www.one.co.il/Article/204294.html |language=he |publisher=ONE |date=14 August 2012 |access-date=14 August 2012 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba played a total of 28 league games with the [[Tel Aviv]]-based team.

===Partizan===
On 24 July 2013, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Serbian side [[FK Partizan|Partizan]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Đemba Đemba potpisao za Šampione |url=http://www.sr.partizan.rs/67900-67900/ |language=sr |publisher=partizan.rs |date=24 July 2013 |access-date=24 July 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his debut in a Champions League qualifying match away to [[PFC Ludogorets Razgrad|Ludogorets Razgrad]] on 31 July 2013, coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |title=Sale Buljavi, brate moj! |website=www.mozzartsport.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803152752/http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |archive-date=3 August 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, Djemba-Djemba hardly played for Partizan during the first half of the season. The club's signing of [[Nikola Drinčić]] on 20 December meant that Djemba-Djemba became surplus to requirements and his contract was terminated on 23 December 2013.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Partizan raskinuo ugovor sa Đemba Đembom |trans-title=Partizan terminated the contract with Djemba Djemba |url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/sport.294.html:469954-Partizan-raskinuo-ugovor-sa-Djemba-Djembom |work=Novosti.rs |publisher=Kompanija Novosti |date=23 December 2013 |access-date=23 December 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba made his debut for the club, in the [[2013–14 Scottish Cup#Fifth round|fifth round of the Scottish Cup]], as St Mirren lost 2–1 against [[Dundee United F.C.|Dundee United]]. After making just three appearances in all competitions, he was released by the club at the end of the season and also failed to secure a place on the Cameroon squad for the world cup.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/27492630 | title=St Mirren: Eric Djemba-Djemba among Buddies departures | publisher=bbc.co.uk | date=20 May 2014 | access-date=20 May 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Odense BK===
On 16 July 2008, Djemba-Djemba signed a three-year contract with Danish side [[Odense Boldklub|OB]], the contract was later extended with a year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Ex-Red Devil joins Odense|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/3844950/ex-red-devil-joins-odense|publisher=Sky Sports|date=20 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; He previously went on a trial with the club&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Tidligere Man United-spiller til prøvetræning i OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/fodbold/tidligere-man-united-spiller-til-proevetraening-i-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 July 2008|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; and made his Odense debut against former club Aston Villa in the [[Intertoto Cup]].&lt;ref name=&quot;where&quot;/&gt; Odense drew the match 1–1, losing 2–1 on aggregate.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Malam |first1=Colin |title=InterToto Cup: Martin O'Neill pleads with Gareth Barry as Aston Villa reach Uefa Cup |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/2462546/InterToto-Cup-Martin-ONeill-pleads-with-Gareth-Barry-as-Aston-Villa-reach-Uefa-Cup.html |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Telegraph |date=20 July 2008}}&lt;/ref&gt; In his career in Odense, Djemba-Djemba impressed the club's fans, with his good ball skills and great performances. In his first season as an Odense player, he played good football, and was described by many as the league's best player.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Jackson |first1=Jamie |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba: 'I was happy at Manchester United – I've no regrets |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/nov/16/eric-djemba-djemba-manchester-united |access-date=19 September 2020 |work=The Observer |date=16 November 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2009, in the 72nd minute against [[Esbjerg fB|Esbjerg]] away, Djemba-Djemba became the first player in the Danish league to assist with his sock, as the sole of his right boot had come off, forcing him to finish the game with one boot.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|title=OB sejrede på nyt stadion|website=www.ob.dk|access-date=11 August 2016|archive-date=12 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160812030549/http://www.ob.dk/artikel/ob-sejrede-paa-nyt-stadion.aspx|url-status=dead}}&lt;/ref&gt; Later that year, Djemba-Djemba was among three other players to be nominated for the SAS Liga player of the year.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=[Three foreigners can be player of the year]|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Tre-udlaendinge-kan-blive-aarets-spiller|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=5 October 2009|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In the summer of 2010, Djemba-Djemba was linked with a move back to England to join [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and Italian side [[U.S. Lecce|Lecce]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Italienere lurer på Djemba-Djemba|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Italienere-lurer-paa-Djemba-Djemba|publisher=Bold.dsk|language=da|date=12 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba in Baggies link|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6279731/djemba-djemba-in-baggies-link|publisher=Sky Sorts|date=26 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; After travelling to England for talks, the move broke down, and this led to accusations against West Brom by the club and Djemba-Djemba himself.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Baggies end Djemba interest|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6283155/baggies-end-djemba-interest|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Odense refute Baggies claims|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6284604/odense-refute-baggies-claims|publisher=Sky Sports|date=29 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba blasts Baggies|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6289684/djemba-djemba-blasts-baggies|publisher=Sky Sports|date=1 August 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

At the end of the 2011–12 season, Djemba-Djemba's future at OB was uncertain after his contract expired. Despite expected negotiations,&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba: Måske forlænger jeg med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/oevrig-sport/djemba-djemba-maaske-forlaenger-jeg-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=23 August 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba vil forlænge med OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/djemba-djemba-vil-forlaenge-med-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=15 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba instead left the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Mendy og Djemba-Djemba forlader OB|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Mendy-og-Djemba-Djemba-forlader-OB|publisher=Bold.dk|language=da|date=24 May 2012|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; The year before, he, along with [[Peter Utaka]], had been told by the club's officials that their contracts would not be renewed.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Avis: Djemba-Djemba og Utaka forlader OB|url=http://www.bt.dk/superligaen/avis-djemba-djemba-og-utaka-forlader-ob|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; As a result of their contracts not being renewed, the club decided to release players sooner rather than later.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=OB: Overvejer salg af Utaka og Djemba|publisher=BT.dk|language=da|date=25 November 2011}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===Hapoel Tel Aviv===
On 14 August 2012, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Israeli club [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Djemba-Djemba signed for Hapoel: I found a warm home |url=http://www.one.co.il/Article/204294.html |language=he |publisher=ONE |date=14 August 2012 |access-date=14 August 2012 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba played a total of 28 league games with the [[Tel Aviv]]-based team.

===Partizan===
On 24 July 2013, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Serbian side [[FK Partizan|Partizan]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Đemba Đemba potpisao za Šampione |url=http://www.sr.partizan.rs/67900-67900/ |language=sr |publisher=partizan.rs |date=24 July 2013 |access-date=24 July 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his debut in a Champions League qualifying match away to [[PFC Ludogorets Razgrad|Ludogorets Razgrad]] on 31 July 2013, coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |title=Sale Buljavi, brate moj! |website=www.mozzartsport.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803152752/http://www.mozzartsport.com/vesti/sale-buljavi-brate-moj |archive-date=3 August 2013}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, Djemba-Djemba hardly played for Partizan during the first half of the season. The club's signing of [[Nikola Drinčić]] on 20 December meant that Djemba-Djemba became surplus to requirements and his contract was terminated on 23 December 2013.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Partizan raskinuo ugovor sa Đemba Đembom |trans-title=Partizan terminated the contract with Djemba Djemba |url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/sport.294.html:469954-Partizan-raskinuo-ugovor-sa-Djemba-Djembom |work=Novosti.rs |publisher=Kompanija Novosti |date=23 December 2013 |access-date=23 December 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba once went on three month unpaid at the club.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |date=9 March 2014 |title=St Mirren midfielder Eric Djemba-Djemba keen to extend his stay in Scottish football |publisher=Daily Record |url=http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/st-mirren-midfielder-eric-djemba-djemba-3222651? |access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

===St Mirren===
On 5 February 2014, Djemba-Djemba signed a short-term deal with [[Scottish Premiership]] club [[St Mirren F.C.|St Mirren]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |title=Saints sign Djemba-Djemba |url=http://www.saintmirren.net/pages/?p=30679 |publisher=saintmirren.net |date=5 February 2014 |access-date=5 February 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140221233146/http://www.saintmirren.net/pages/?p=30679 |archive-date=21 February 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; He said he hoped his move to St Mirren can help him gain a place in the [[Cameroon national football team|Cameroon]] squad for the [[2014 FIFA World Cup|2014 World Cup]] in Brazil.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |title=Eric Djemba-Djemba hopes St Miren move can force a World cup place |url=http://sport.stv.tv/football/clubs/st-mirren/263108-eric-djemba-djemba-hopes-st-mirren-move-can-force-a-world-cup-place/ |publisher=STV Sport |date=6 February 2014 |access-date=6 February 2014 |archive-date=6 February 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150206191000/http://sport.stv.tv/football/clubs/st-mirren/263108-eric-djemba-djemba-hopes-st-mirren-move-can-force-a-world-cup-place/ |url-status=dead }}&lt;/ref&gt; Upon joining the club, manager [[Danny Lennon]] described Djemba-Djemba as the club's biggest signing.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Eric Djemba Djemba is St Mirren's biggest signing ever according to manager Danny Lennon|url=http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/458429/Eric-Djemba-Djemba-is-St-Mirren-s-biggest-signing-ever-according-to-manager-Danny-Lennon|publisher=Daily Express|date=6 February 2014|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Djemba-Djemba made his debut for the club, in the [[2013–14 Scottish Cup#Fifth round|fifth round of the Scottish Cup]], as St Mirren lost 2–1 against [[Dundee United F.C.|Dundee United]]. After making just three appearances in all competitions, he was released by the club at the end of the season and also failed to secure a place on the Cameroon squad for the world cup.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/27492630 | title=St Mirren: Eric Djemba-Djemba among Buddies departures | publisher=bbc.co.uk | date=20 May 2014 | access-date=20 May 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In the summer of 2010, Djemba-Djemba was linked with a move back to England to join [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and Italian side [[U.S. Lecce|Lecce]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Italienere lurer på Djemba-Djemba|url=http://www.bold.dk/nyt/Italienere-lurer-paa-Djemba-Djemba|publisher=Bold.dsk|language=da|date=12 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba in Baggies link|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6279731/djemba-djemba-in-baggies-link|publisher=Sky Sorts|date=26 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt; After travelling to England for talks, the move broke down, and this led to accusations against West Brom by the club and Djemba-Djemba himself.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Baggies end Djemba interest|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6283155/baggies-end-djemba-interest|publisher=Sky Sports|date=28 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Odense refute Baggies claims|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6284604/odense-refute-baggies-claims|publisher=Sky Sports|date=29 July 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Djemba-Djemba blasts Baggies|url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11797/6289684/djemba-djemba-blasts-baggies|publisher=Sky Sports|date=1 August 2010|access-date=21 March 2014}}&lt;/ref&gt;

At the end of the 2011–12 season, Djemba-Djemba's future at OB was uncertain after his contract expired.

===Hapoel Tel Aviv===
On 14 August 2012, Djemba-Djemba signed a two-year contract with Israeli club [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Djemba-Djemba signed for Hapoel: I found a warm home |url=http://www.one.co.il/Article/204294.html |language=he |publisher=ONE |date=14 August 2012 |access-date=14 August 2012 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Djemba-Djemba played a total of 28 league games with the [[Tel Aviv]]-based team.

The club's signing of [[Nikola Drinčić]] on 20 December meant that Djemba-Djemba became surplus to requirements and his contract was terminated on 23 December 2013.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Partizan raskinuo ugovor sa Đemba Đembom |trans-title=Partizan terminated the contract with Djemba Djemba |url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/sport.294.html:469954-Partizan-raskinuo-ugovor-sa-Djemba-Djembom |work=Novosti.rs |publisher=Kompanija Novosti |date=23 December 2013 |access-date=23 December 2013 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

While at Marseille he spent a season on loan at English Premiership strugglers [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] and a season at Qatari club [[Al Rayyan SC|Al Rayyan]].

After leaving Marseille permanently in 2007, Olembé spent the summer on trial at Premiership newcomers [[Derby County F.C.|Derby County]], where he scored in a friendly match against [[Burton Albion F.C.|Burton Albion]]. However, he was not offered a contract by Derby and, on 4 September, he was snapped up by [[Wigan Athletic F.C.|Wigan Athletic]] manager [[Chris Hutchings]] on a one-year initial contract.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/w/wigan_athletic/6978578.stm|title=Wigan sign Cameroon star Olembe|date=4 September 2007|access-date=4 September 2007|publisher=BBC Sport}}&lt;/ref&gt; He was signed as a replacement for the recently departed [[Leighton Baines]], but only made eight appearances for the Lancashire club.

In April 2008, it was revealed that Olembé would transfer to Turkish club [[Kayserispor]].&lt;ref name=&quot;Olembe to Kayserispor&quot;&gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.wigan.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=106445|title=Olembe to Kayserispor|date=15 April 2008|access-date=15 April 2008|publisher=Vitalfootball|archive-date=7 April 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150407012352/http://www.wigan.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=106445|url-status=dead}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In January 2010, in the winter break of his second season in the [[Süper Lig]], Olembé transferred to Greek side [[Athlitiki Enosi Larissa F.C.|AEL]], but spent only a few months with the club before joining English Championship team [[Burnley F.C.|Burnley]] on trial in March. He played in a reserve game against [[Manchester City F.C.|Manchester City]] but was substituted at half-time.&lt;ref name=&quot;Olembe plays in reseves&quot;&gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.clarets-mad.co.uk/roll/ed31/olembe_plays_in_reserves_501441/index.shtml|title=Olembe plays in reserves|date=1 March 2010|access-date=1 March 2010|publisher=Clarets-Mad}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Olembé holds Cameroonian and French nationalities.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.ligue1.fr/joueur?id=rene-salomon-olembe-olembe|title=Joueur}}&lt;/ref&gt; He acquired [[French nationality law|French nationality]] by [[naturalization]] on 17 June 1999.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|title=JORF n° 0140 du 19 juin 1999 - Légifrance|url=https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/jorf/jo/1999/06/19/0140|access-date=2023-11-07|website=www.legifrance.gouv.fr}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In January 2010, in the winter break of his second season in the [[Süper Lig]], Olembé transferred to Greek side [[Athlitiki Enosi Larissa F.C.|AEL]], but spent only a few months with the club before joining English Championship team [[Burnley F.C.|Burnley]] on trial in March.

'''Quinton Fortune''' (born 21 May 1977) is a South African professional [[association football|soccer]] coach and former player, who played as a [[midfielder]] or [[Defender (association football)#Full-back|left-back]]. After stints with [[RCD Mallorca|Mallorca]] and [[Atlético Madrid]], he settled with [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] in 1999 and spent seven years there, winning a [[Premier League]] title, [[FA Community Shield]] and [[Intercontinental Cup (1960–2004)|Intercontinental Cup]].

Fortune played internationally for [[South Africa national soccer team|South Africa]] from 1996 to 2005, earning 46 [[Cap (sport)|caps]]. He was part of the South Africa squad for the [[1998 FIFA World Cup|1998]] and [[2002 FIFA World Cup]]s.

==Club career==
Fortune began his professional football career with [[Tottenham Hotspur F.C.|Tottenham Hotspur]]. In 1995, he moved to Spain to play for [[RCD Mallorca|Mallorca]], but soon moved on to [[Atlético Madrid]], where he mostly played for the [[Atlético Madrid B|B team]]. In August 1999, Fortune had a trial at [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]], prompting manager [[Alex Ferguson]] to sign him for a fee of £1.5&amp;nbsp;million; Fortune turned down a move to [[Real Valladolid]] to secure the move to Manchester United.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web |title=Man Utd set to land Fortune |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/sport/football/fa_carling_premiership/419039.stm |access-date=24 June 2025 |website=news.bbc.co.uk}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his first appearance for the club against [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]] on 30 August. His first goal followed on Boxing Day 1999 against [[Bradford City A.F.C.|Bradford City]],&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/sport/football/fa_carling_premiership/578698.stm |title=Fortune paves the way |website=BBC Sport |date=26 December 1999 |access-date=9 August 2016}}&lt;/ref&gt; and he scored twice against [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] in the [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Fortune fails to save Man Utd |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/special_report/1999/12/99/world_club_championship/599462.stm |website=BBC Sport |date=11 January 2000 |access-date=9 August 2016 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Despite playing in three [[Premier League]] winning seasons ([[1999–2000 Manchester United F.C. season|1999–2000]], [[2000–01 Manchester United F.C. season|2000–01]] and [[2002–03 Manchester United F.C. season|2002–03]]), Fortune never played the required 10 games stipulated to earn a winner's medal.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web |title=Quinton Fortune {{!}} Football Stats {{!}} No Club {{!}} Season 2006/2007 {{!}} 1995-2010 {{!}} Soccer Base |url=https://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=14332&amp;season_id=136 |access-date=24 June 2025 |website=www.soccerbase.com}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, he was awarded a Premier League winner's medal by special dispensation following United's title success in 2003 during which he had appeared nine times in the league that season. It is commonly incorrectly reported that this medal had been left at the club by a former player.&lt;ref&gt;United Review The Official Matchday Programme Volume 65 Issue 7&lt;/ref&gt; After being used mostly in a squad rotation basis for his career at Manchester United, he was released by the club ahead of the [[2006–07 Manchester United F.C. season|2006–07 campaign]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Fortune set for Man Utd departure |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/4865676.stm |website=BBC Sport |date=31 March 2006 |access-date=2 June 2015 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

After a successful trial, Fortune joined [[Bolton Wanderers F.C.|Bolton Wanderers]] for the 2006–07 season.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Fortune finalises Bolton switch |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/bolton_wanderers/5201342.stm |website=BBC Sport |date=26 July 2006 |access-date=8 June 2015 }}&lt;/ref&gt;

Fortune began his professional football career with [[Tottenham Hotspur F.C.|Tottenham Hotspur]]. In 1995, he moved to Spain to play for [[RCD Mallorca|Mallorca]], but soon moved on to [[Atlético Madrid]], where he mostly played for the [[Atlético Madrid B|B team]]. In August 1999, Fortune had a trial at [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]], prompting manager [[Alex Ferguson]] to sign him for a fee of £1.5&amp;nbsp;million; Fortune turned down a move to [[Real Valladolid]] to secure the move to Manchester United.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web |title=Man Utd set to land Fortune |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/sport/football/fa_carling_premiership/419039.stm |access-date=24 June 2025 |website=news.bbc.co.uk}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his first appearance for the club against [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]] on 30 August.

Fortune began his professional football career with [[Tottenham Hotspur F.C.|Tottenham Hotspur]]. In 1995, he moved to Spain to play for [[RCD Mallorca|Mallorca]], but soon moved on to [[Atlético Madrid]], where he mostly played for the [[Atlético Madrid B|B team]]. In August 1999, Fortune had a trial at [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]], prompting manager [[Alex Ferguson]] to sign him for a fee of £1.5&amp;nbsp;million; Fortune turned down a move to [[Real Valladolid]] to secure the move to Manchester United.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web |title=Man Utd set to land Fortune |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/sport/football/fa_carling_premiership/419039.stm |access-date=24 June 2025 |website=news.bbc.co.uk}}&lt;/ref&gt; He made his first appearance for the club against [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]] on 30 August.

'''Garki Hospital''' is a 100-bed hospital in [[Abuja]], Nigeria, is owned by the [[Federal Capital Territory Administration]] (FCTA), and is one of a few hospitals in the country that carry out [[renal transplants]].&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=|title=Garki Hospital Abuja|url=http://garkihospital.com/|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=25 November 2019|website=Garki Hospital|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt;

== Ownership ==
Garki Hospital Abuja is owned by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA). It was closed in 2001 for full renovation. In March 2007, a concession agreement for the management and operation of the new Garki Hospital Abuja was signed between FCTA and [[Nisa Premier Hospital]], after a competitive bidding process.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;

== Specializations ==
Garki Hospital also runs residency programs in [[Obstetrics]], [[Gynaecology|Gynecology]], [[Family medicine|Family Medicine]] and [[Pediatrics]] and is among private hospitals in the country accredited by the [[West African College of Physicians]] (WACP) and [[West African College of Surgeons]] (WACS) to run postgraduate medical training in these specialties. In December 2023, they were recommended for re-accreditation of the Pediatrics residency program, one of the few departments to run a 24-hour clinic for children in the [[Capital districts and territories|Federal Capital Territory]], Abuja.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;

The current medical director of the hospital is Dr Adamu Onu, a consultant Family Physician with other notable consultants like Professor Umar Shehu, Dr Diekola Utele (Paediatrics), Dr Kelechi Onyemkpa (Paediatrics), Dr Kenneth Ityo, Professor Titus Ibekwe (Otolaryngology) among others.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;

Due to the recent need and clamour for welfare improvement, the hospital in 2023, took bold steps to improve working conditions for staff.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;

== History ==
In 2001, Garki General Hospital was closed for a full-scale renovation. Over the next six years, the facility remained non-operational while undergoing rehabilitation.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;

In March 2007, the [[Federal Capital Territory Administration]] (FCTA) implemented its newly developed [[Public–private partnership|Public–Private Partnership]] (PPP) policy in healthcare, selecting Garki Hospital for a [[pilot program]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=29 December 2017|title=FG to expand health care delivery using Garki Hospital PPP model|url=http://www.icrc.gov.ng/fg-expand-health-care-delivery-using-using-garki-hospital-ppp-model/|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=25 November 2019|website=ICRC {{!}} Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt; After a competitive bidding process, [[Nisa Premier Hospital]] won the concession to manage and operate the renewed facility.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|last=icrcweb|date=2017-12-29|title=FG to expand health care delivery using Garki Hospital PPP model|url=https://www.icrc.gov.ng/fg-expand-health-care-delivery-using-using-garki-hospital-ppp-model/|access-date=2025-08-29|website=Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt; Since it the hospitals reopening it has remained operational [[24/7 service|24/7]] with zero [[Layoff|layoffs]] even amongst the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite news|last=Nation|first=The|date=2021-03-25|title=Garki Hospital as model for access to healthcare through PPP|url=https://thenationonlineng.net/garki-hospital-as-model-for-access-to-healthcare-through-ppp/|location=Lagos, Nigeria|access-date=2025-08-29|newspaper=[[The Nation (Nigeria)|The Nation]]|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite news|date=2025-06-03|title=Garki Hospital as model for Public-Private-Partnership|url=https://blueprint.ng/garki-hospital-as-model-for-public-private-partnership/|location=Abuja, Nigeria|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250720054113/https://blueprint.ng/garki-hospital-as-model-for-public-private-partnership/|archive-date=2025-07-20|access-date=2025-08-29|language=en-US|newspaper=[[Blueprint (newspaper)|Blueprint]]}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite news|date=2022-03-13|title=GARKI HOSPITAL IS BETTER RUN ON A PPP MODEL|url=https://www.thisdaylive.com/2022/03/14/garki-hospital-is-better-run-on-a-ppp-model/|access-date=2025-08-29|newspaper=[[This Day]]|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In March 2007, the [[Federal Capital Territory Administration]] (FCTA) implemented its newly developed [[Public–private partnership|Public–Private Partnership]] (PPP) policy in healthcare, selecting Garki Hospital for a [[pilot program]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=29 December 2017|title=FG to expand health care delivery using Garki Hospital PPP model|url=http://www.icrc.gov.ng/fg-expand-health-care-delivery-using-using-garki-hospital-ppp-model/|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=25 November 2019|website=ICRC {{!}} Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt; After a competitive bidding process, [[Nisa Premier Hospital]] won the concession to manage and operate the renewed facility.&lt;ref name=&quot;GarkiWebsite&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|last=icrcweb|date=2017-12-29|title=FG to expand health care delivery using Garki Hospital PPP model|url=https://www.icrc.gov.ng/fg-expand-health-care-delivery-using-using-garki-hospital-ppp-model/|access-date=2025-08-29|website=Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt; Since it the hospitals reopening it has remained operational [[24/7 service|24/7]] with zero [[Layoff|layoffs]] even amongst the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite news|last=Nation|first=The|date=2021-03-25|title=Garki Hospital as model for access to healthcare through PPP|url=https://thenationonlineng.net/garki-hospital-as-model-for-access-to-healthcare-through-ppp/|location=Lagos, Nigeria|access-date=2025-08-29|newspaper=[[The Nation (Nigeria)|The Nation]]|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite news|date=2025-06-03|title=Garki Hospital as model for Public-Private-Partnership|url=https://blueprint.ng/garki-hospital-as-model-for-public-private-partnership/|location=Abuja, Nigeria|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250720054113/https://blueprint.ng/garki-hospital-as-model-for-public-private-partnership/|archive-date=2025-07-20|access-date=2025-08-29|language=en-US|newspaper=[[Blueprint (newspaper)|Blueprint]]}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite news|date=2022-03-13|title=GARKI HOSPITAL IS BETTER RUN ON A PPP MODEL|url=https://www.thisdaylive.com/2022/03/14/garki-hospital-is-better-run-on-a-ppp-model/|access-date=2025-08-29|newspaper=[[This Day]]|language=en-US}}&lt;/ref&gt;

'''Arthur Wharton''' (28 October 1865 – 12 December 1930) was a British footballer. He is widely considered to be the first [[black people|black]] [[professional sports|professional]] [[association football|footballer]] in the world.&lt;ref name=&quot;100blackbritons&quot;&gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.100greatblackbritons.com/bios/arthur_wharton-andrew_watson.html| title=Arthur Wharton | work=100 Great Black Britons }}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book | author=Phil Vasili | title=The First Black Footballer, Arthur Wharton, 1865–1930|publisher=Frank Cass|date=1998| isbn=0-7146-4903-1 }}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;furd&quot;&gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.furd.org/default.asp?intPageID=25 | title=Arthur Wharton | work=Football Unites, Racism Divides | access-date=12 August 2008 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110610135710/http://www.furd.org/default.asp?intPageID=25 | archive-date=10 June 2011 | url-status=dead }}&lt;/ref&gt; Though not the first black player outright – the amateurs [[Robert Walker (Third Lanark footballer)|Robert Walker]], of Queen's Park, and [[Scotland national football team|Scotland]] international player, [[Andrew Watson (footballer, born 1856)|Andrew Watson]] (possibly a professional before Arthur Wharton for [[Bootle F.C.

==Early life, ancestry and early career==
Wharton was born in [[Jamestown, Ghana|Jamestown]], [[Gold Coast (British colony)|Gold Coast]] (now part of [[Accra]], Ghana). His father Henry Wharton was a [[Grenada|Grenadian]] missionary of Scottish and West African descent,&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web | url=https://dmbi.online/index.php?do=app.entry&amp;id=3846 | title=Wharton, Henry | work=A Dictionary of Methodism in Britain and Ireland}}&lt;/ref&gt; while his mother, Annie Florence Egyriba was a member of the [[Fante people|Fante]] Ghanaian royalty.&lt;ref name=&quot;Arthur Wharton&quot;&gt;{{cite web | url=http://arthurwharton.com/the-early-years.html | title=Arthur Wharton: The Early Years | work=Arthur Wharton Foundation | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150105103850/http://arthurwharton.com/the-early-years.html | archive-date=5 January 2015}}&lt;/ref&gt; In his home country Wharton attended [[Mfantsipim School]].&lt;ref&gt;[https://www.modernghana.com/sports/575218/arthur-wharton-the-worlds-first-black-professional-footbal.html Arthur Wharton: the world's first black professional footballer in from Ghana]&lt;/ref&gt; Wharton moved to England in 1882 at age 19, to train as a [[Methodist]] [[missionary]], but soon abandoned this in favour of becoming a full-time athlete.&lt;ref name=&quot;100blackbritons&quot;/&gt;

He was an all-round sportsman – in 1886, he equalled the amateur world record of 10 seconds for the 100-yard sprint in the [[Amateur Athletics Association|AAA]] championship.&lt;ref name=&quot;furd&quot;/&gt; He was also a keen [[cycle sport|cyclist]] and [[cricket]]er, playing for local teams in [[Yorkshire]] and [[Lancashire]]. However, Wharton is best remembered for his exploits as a footballer; while he was not the first mixed-heritage footballer in the [[United Kingdom]] — leading amateurs [[Robert Walker (Third Lanark footballer)|Robert Walker]] and [[Scotland national football team|Scotland international]] [[Andrew Watson (footballer, born 1856)|Andrew Watson]] predate him, however Wharton was the first mixed-heritage footballer to turn professional.&lt;ref name=&quot;furd&quot;/&gt;

== Football career ==
[[File:Darlington FC Winners of the Cleveland Challenge Cup 1887.jpg|thumb|300px|left|Wharton (seated second from left on front row) while playing for Darlington F.C. (1887)]]
Wharton started as an amateur playing as a [[goalkeeper (association football)|goalkeeper]] for [[Darlington F.C.]], where he was spotted by [[Preston North End F.C.|Preston North End]] after playing against them.&lt;ref name=&quot;bbc&quot;/&gt; He joined them as an amateur, and was part of the team that reached [[FA Cup]] semi-finals in [[1886–87 in English football|1886–87]].&lt;ref name=&quot;bbc&quot;/&gt; During the third round victory against [[Renton F.C.|Renton]], Wharton's clean sheet was described by [[Athletic News]] as &quot;one of the best exhibitions of goalkeeping I have seen for a long time.&quot;{{sfn|Vasili|1998|p=63}} Though part of &quot;[[The Invincibles (football)|The Invincibles]]&quot; of the 1880s,&lt;ref name=&quot;taw&quot;&gt;{{cite book |last= Taw |first= Thomas | title= Football's Twelve Apostles: The Making of The League 1886–1889 |publisher=Desert Island Books|year= 2006 |isbn=1-905328-09-5 |pages=17}}&lt;/ref&gt; he left Preston in 1888 to concentrate on his running, and thus was not part of the team that subsequently won [[Double (association football)|the Double]] in [[1888–89 in English football|1888–89]].&lt;ref name=&quot;bbc&quot;&gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/tyne/roots/2003/10/arthur_wharton.shtml | title=Arthur Wharton: The first Black Footballer | work=BBC }}&lt;/ref&gt;

In 1888 the Sheffield Football Association agreed to give a testimonial to Sheffield Wednesday's [[Billy Mosforth]], versus Preston North End. The meeting of both clubs in the FA Cup meant that the match was postponed until February, by which point the Olive Grove was snow covered and the match was switched to Bramall Lane. Arthur volunteered for the 'Sheffield Wednesday and District' team but despite both clubs being locked into a draw in the first half Preston ran away with the match, winning 8–1. It was reported that Wednesday's heavy loss was &quot;in great measure owing to the wretched performance of Wharton, who utterly failed to uphold his high reputation as a goalkeeper&quot; and that he &quot;could not have stopped the ball had it been half as big as a balloon&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Preston North End v. Sheffield Wednesday and District|publisher=Sporting Life|date=29 February 1888|page=3}}&lt;/ref&gt; It was reported that at times the Wednesday fans applauded every kick Arthur took and one fan angrily asked the Preston team where they had &quot;brought him from&quot; as it was well known that Arthur was a former Preston player. There were even fears that Arthur would be the victim of violence as he left the field.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Mosforth's Benefit|work=Sheffield Daily Telegraph|date=28 February 1888|page=8}}&lt;/ref&gt; Arthur did have a connection to Sheffield Wednesday, through his trainer in Sheffield 'Billy' South, who amongst other noted Sheffield sporting icons of the day also trained Wednesday's [[Tommy Crawshaw]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|title=Old Sheffield Handicaps|publisher=Star Green 'Un|date=30 November 1912|page=4}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Having failed to impress at Sheffield Wednesday he returned to football in 1889, joining [[Rotherham Town F.C. (1878)|Rotherham Town]], signing as a professional. In 1890 he married Emma Lister (1866–1944) at [[Rotherham]] in Yorkshire.&lt;ref&gt;[http://interactive.ancestry.co.uk/8913/ONS_M18904AZ-0832/17948035?backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.co.uk%2fcgi-bin%2fsse.dll%3fdb%3dFreeBMDMarriage%26h%3d17948035%26ti%3d5538%26indiv%3dtry%26gss%3dpt%26ssrc%3dpt_t26094080_p12742173009_kpidz0q3d12742173009z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid&amp;ssrc=pt_t26094080_p12742173009_kpidz0q3d12742173009z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid&amp;backlabel=ReturnRecord England &amp; Wales, Free BMD Marriage Index, 1837–1915 for Emma Lister] – [[Ancestry.com]] pay to view&lt;/ref&gt; By 1891 he was the landlord of the Albert Tavern in Rotherham.&lt;ref&gt;[http://interactive.ancestry.co.uk/6598/WRYRG12_3849_3850-0361/4966214?backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.co.uk%2fcgi-bin%2fsse.dll%3fdb%3duki1891%26h%3d4966214%26ti%3d5538%26indiv%3dtry%26gss%3dpt%26ssrc%3dpt_t26094080_p12742173009_kpidz0q3d12742173009z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid&amp;ssrc=pt_t26094080_p12742173009_kpidz0q3d12742173009z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid&amp;backlabel=ReturnRecord 1891 England Census for Arthur Wharton] – [[Ancestry.com]] pay to view&lt;/ref&gt; In 1894 he moved to [[Sheffield United F.C.|Sheffield United]], though he was understudy to regular first-team goalkeeper [[William Foulke (footballer)|William &quot;Fatty&quot; Foulke]].&lt;ref name=&quot;furd&quot;/&gt; During the [[1894–95 in English football|1894–95]] season, Wharton played three games for Sheffield United, against [[Leicester City F.C.|Leicester Fosse]], [[Linfield F.C.|Linfield]] and [[Sunderland A.F.C.|Sunderland]] — the latter being a [[Football League First Division|First Division]] game, making Wharton the first mixed-heritage player to play in the top flight.&lt;ref name=&quot;furd&quot;/&gt; In 1895 he left for [[Stalybridge Rovers F.C.|Stalybridge Rovers]] but after falling out with the management moved to [[Ashton North End F.C.|Ashton North End]] in 1897, where he opened a tobacconist shop in [[Ashton-under-Lyne]].&lt;ref&gt;[http://interactive.ancestry.co.uk/7814/LANRG13_3784_3786-0582/23881965?backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.co.uk%2fcgi-bin%2fsse.dll%3fdb%3duki1901%26h%3d23881965%26ti%3d5538%26indiv%3dtry%26gss%3dpt%26ssrc%3dpt_t26094080_p12742173009_kpidz0q3d12742173009z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid&amp;ssrc=pt_t26094080_p12742173009_kpidz0q3d12742173009z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid&amp;backlabel=ReturnRecord 1901 England Census for Arthur Wharton] – [[Ancestry.com]] pay to view&lt;/ref&gt; Ashton North End went bankrupt in 1899, and he returned to Stalybridge Rovers, playing with a young [[Herbert Chapman]], before seeing out his career playing for [[Stockport County F.C.|Stockport County]] of the [[Football League Second Division|Second Division]] in [[1901–02 in English football|1901–02]].&lt;ref name=&quot;bbc&quot;/&gt; As well as playing in goal, he would also occasionally feature outfield as a winger.

==Club career==
A youth prospect of [[RC Lens|Lens]], Kaïssi played for the reserve team and was a finalist in the 2000–01 [[Championnat National 2 (1993–2026)|Championnat National 2]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |last1=Hamelin |first1=Frédéric |last2=Lebrun |first2=Hugo |title=Finales jeunes : les sentiers de la gloire |work=[[Onze Mondial]] |issue=150 |date=2001 |page=23 |language=fr}}&lt;/ref&gt; He also played on loan for [[ES Wasquehal]] in [[Ligue 2]] during the 2001–02 season.&lt;ref&gt;{{LFP|id=kaissi-yazid}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Kaïssi never made an official appearance for the Lens first team, and he therefore left the club in October 2004 to play one season at Greek club [[Panionios F.C.|Panionios]], making only a few appearances.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Le Marocain Yazid Kaïssi en essai au Panionios (Grèce) |url=https://lematin.ma/journal/2005/Le-Marocain-Yazid-Kaissi-en-essai-au-Panionios--Grece-/49019.html |work=Le Matin |date=5 January 2005 |language=fr}}&lt;/ref&gt; After his stint in Greece, he played one season at [[BK Häcken]] in Sweden.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Premiären SvD-kommentar Dioh Williams Liberia |url=https://www.svd.se/premiaren-svd-kommentar-dioh-williams-liberia |work=Svenska Dagbladet |date=27 March 2006 |language=sv}}&lt;/ref&gt; He then moved to Qatari club [[Umm-Salal Sports Club|Umm-Salal]]. After stints with [[Al-Karamah SC|Al-Karamah]] and [[Dubai CSC|Dubai Club]],&lt;ref&gt;[http://gulfnews.com/in-focus/uae-football-league/uae-football-league-team-profiles-1.672944 gulfnews : UAE Football League team profiles] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110119170023/http://gulfnews.com/in-focus/uae-football-league/uae-football-league-team-profiles-1.672944 |date=19 January 2011 }}&lt;/ref&gt; Kaïssi signed with Moroccan club [[Wydad de Fès]] in the summer of 2011.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Les indiscrétions de Ali Hassouni |url=https://lematin.ma/journal/2011/Lu-Vu-Entendu_Les-indiscretions-de-Ali-Hassouni/156247.html |work=Le Matin |date=13 September 2011 |language=fr}}&lt;/ref&gt; In the 2012–13 season, he played for [[Stade Marocain]]. Kaïssi played for [[Feignies Aulnoye FC|Feignies Aulnoye]] between 2013 and 2016.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Football: Aulnoye accroche Feignies dans les dernières minutes (2-2) |url=https://www.lavoixdunord.fr/art/region/football-aulnoye-accroche-feignies-dans-les-dernieres-jna12b0n1037359 |work=La Voix du Nord |date=17 February 2013 |language=fr}}&lt;/ref&gt;

==International career==
In 2002, Kaïssi was a member of the [[Algeria Olympic football team|Algerian Under-23 National Team]] at the 2002 Palestine Solidarity Tournament in [[Yemen]].&lt;ref&gt;[http://dzfootball.free.fr/EN/Competitions/tournoi-solidarite-pour-la-palestine-2002.html Tournoi Solidarité pour la Palestine – Yémen 2002]&lt;/ref&gt;

However, after that he opted to play for [[Morocco national football team]] and played for the senior national team at the [[2002 Arab Nations Cup]] in [[Kuwait]], appearing in three matches and scoring one goal.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |publisher=[[Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation]] |title=Arabian Cup 2002 Details |url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arabcup02-details.html |access-date=2009-04-03}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Kaïssi was part of the [[2004 Summer Olympics|2004 Olympic]] [[Morocco national football team]], which exited in the first round, finishing third in group D, behind group winners [[Iraq]] and runners-up [[Costa Rica]].&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |title=FIFA Player Statistics: Yazid KAISSI |url=https://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/statisticsandrecords/players/player=202075/index.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103072640/http://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/statisticsandrecords/players/player=202075/index.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=3 November 2012 |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association |access-date=2009-04-03}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news |title=Morocco name Olympic squad |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/africa/3925041.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |date=25 July 2004 |access-date=2009-04-03}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite Sports-Reference |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/ka/yazid-kaissi-1.html |title=Yazid Kaissi |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161203101901/https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/ka/yazid-kaissi-1.html |archive-date=2016-12-03}}&lt;/ref&gt;
