The path of Alex Song iN the world of football is being most outrageous. The latest move, according to Nuhu Adamas, African journalist, has been to sign for AS Arta Solar 7 who play in the League of Djibouti. He signed for two seasons.

From playing at the Camp Nou and the Emirates Stadium to the League of Djibouti. That is being the career of Alex Song. According to the African journalist Nuhu Adams, the player signed a 2-year contract with AS Arta Solar 7, a club that contrasts quite a bit with his previous squads

This midfielder started to make himself known at Arsenal. He took the big step up to the Premier League, he did so as a starter and travelled to Spain to join one of the best teams in La Liga. That is where his decline started.

He went to West Ham and then Rubin Kazan, which was the prelude to him signing for Sion, where he ended up leaving because he didn't accept the wage cut. He already confessed in an interview that it is something important for him: he didn't care that he didn't star much for Barcelona because of the amount he earned.

Now, at 33, he faces what could be the last step of his career. He will be up against opponents of lesser level that he has seen in previous years but, in his favour, he will be one of the stars of the championship and that may lead his team to win many titles.
