It’s now 12 signings for Memphis 901 FC, and the latest name might be the biggest one yet.
The organization announced the acquisition of Roland Lamah, a winger who has seen it all during a lengthy career spanning the globe and more than 300 appearances. The Ivory Coast-born, Belgian international has plenty of top-level experience, including time playing for CA Osasuna in the Spanish La Liga and Swansea City in the English Premier League.
He’s also picked up a few trophies, including the Belgian First Division and Super Cup titles with RSC Anderlecht, as well as a memorable EFL Cup win with Swansea in 2013. Most recently, he played in America for MLS sides FC Dallas and FC Cincinnati.
“We are thrilled to have a player of Roland’s quality and experience join us in Memphis,” said 901 FC sporting director Tim Howard. “He has enjoyed success at some very high levels in football and will pose an attacking threat to every defense he lines up against this season.”
Lamah will make his first official appearance in Memphis during 901 FC’s home opener on Wednesday, June 16th.
