News about Yannick Bolasie

A former Premier League and international star is now plying his trade at ALDI - and likely pocketing more cash than ever. He started off in a Premier League academy before being on the books at another top-flight club and playing various times for other teams. His career, spanning almost a decade, also saw him turn out at international level. He studied at university to prepare for post-football life and said: 'I think a lot of footballers are reluctant to explore education, because they feel once they do this they are accepting the fact that one day they will no longer be a professional footballer.'

For the next phase of his career, a former Premier League player with 162 appearances in the English top flight is expected to move to Brazil. According to reports, Criciuma, who has just been promoted to the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A, has signed a pre-contract with the 34-year-old French born winger, who was out of contract after a short-term contract was concluded in the Championship. In 2015, he was a member of the DR Congo team that finished third in third place at that year's AFCON tournament, scoring against Zambia in the tournament.

The 34-year-old winger appeared for two clubs in the Premier League, making 162 appearances. Since leaving Turkish side Caykur Rizespor at the end of last season, he is a free agent. He last played for Middlesbrough on loan from Everton, who paid £25 million to remove him from Selhurst Park in 2016.
