L’\u00e9t\u00e9 du mercato confirme la pr\u00e9sence croissante de joueurs centrafricains sur les pelouses europ\u00e9ennes. Le 3 juillet, le SCO Angers a officialis\u00e9 le retour d’Usman Simbakoli, attaquant de 24 ans form\u00e9 au club, qui revient en Ligue 1 apr\u00e8s plusieurs saisons pass\u00e9es en Belgique. Le club angevin a d\u00e9bours\u00e9 environ 300 000 euros pour racheter les deux derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es de son contrat avec le RWDM Molenbeek, o\u00f9 le joueur avait inscrit 15 buts la saison pr\u00e9c\u00e9dente. Simbakoli s’est engag\u00e9 jusqu’en 2029, un contrat de longue dur\u00e9e qui traduit la confiance plac\u00e9e par le club dans son ancien pensionnaire du centre de formation, arriv\u00e9 une premi\u00e8re fois \u00e0 Angers en 2018 avant de partir se relancer \u00e0 l’\u00e9tranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dans le m\u00eame temps, un autre international centrafricain a chang\u00e9 de club. Le RC Lens a annonc\u00e9 le d\u00e9part de Goduine Koyalipou, 26 ans, pr\u00eat\u00e9 pour une saison avec option d’achat au KV Courtrai, en Belgique. L’attaquant, qui avait d\u00e9j\u00e0 port\u00e9 les couleurs du club belge de Beveren par le pass\u00e9, ne figurait plus dans les plans du nouvel entra\u00eeneur lensois Dino Toppm\u00f6ller. Sa derni\u00e8re saison avait \u00e9t\u00e9 marqu\u00e9e par des pr\u00eats successifs, \u00e0 Levante en Espagne puis \u00e0 Angers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ces deux dossiers illustrent des trajectoires oppos\u00e9es mais r\u00e9v\u00e9latrices du parcours souvent sinueux des footballeurs centrafricains, qui doivent fr\u00e9quemment s’exiler t\u00f4t pour esp\u00e9rer percer, avant, pour certains, de retrouver un temps de jeu r\u00e9gulier loin des grands championnats. Pour la F\u00e9d\u00e9ration centrafricaine de football (FCF), chaque transfert dans un championnat europ\u00e9en reconnu reste suivi de pr\u00e8s, ces joueurs constituant un vivier potentiel pour la s\u00e9lection nationale, les Fauves, engag\u00e9e dans la course aux prochaines \u00e9ch\u00e9ances continentales, entre qualifications pour la Coupe d’Afrique des nations et pour la Coupe du monde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Le nombre de Centrafricains \u00e9voluant hors du pays, en France comme en Belgique, continue de progresser depuis quelques saisons, \u00e0 l’image de ce mouvement estival qui voit deux joueurs form\u00e9s dans des fili\u00e8res diff\u00e9rentes se croiser entre Ligue 1 et championnat belge. Reste \u00e0 savoir si ces mouvements de mercato se traduiront, \u00e0 la rentr\u00e9e, par des s\u00e9lections plus r\u00e9guli\u00e8res en \u00e9quipe nationale, alors que le staff technique des Fauves pr\u00e9pare les prochaines \u00e9ch\u00e9ances internationales et cherche \u00e0 \u00e9largir son vivier de joueurs binationaux ou expatri\u00e9s capables d’apporter un surcro\u00eet de rythme et d’exp\u00e9rience au groupe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
