TP Mazembe Sign Young Hot Striker

DR Congo champions TP Mazembe have completed the signing of 20-year-old striker Joel Beya on a five-year-deal.

The pacy forward joins Ravens from local rivals CS Don Bosco where he scored 10 goals in 20 games, with six coming in the DR Congo championship.

Beya started his career Moses Katumbi Football School that’s owned by his new club’s president before moving to Don Bosco.

“It was a childhood dream [to play for TP Mazembe] since my first days at the Moses Katumbi Football School,” Beya told his new club’s website.

“In 2009, I was only 10 years old when I joined the development category of the training centre. I went to cadets and juniors before going to CS Don Bosco. Thanks to the leaders of the club for the trust placed in us young people.”

The left-footed forward, who is a joy to watch, is able to play all offensive positions, but will only be eligible to play after the resumption of Congolese League.
