• Date of Birth/Age: December 31 1987/Age 22

• Description: CSKA’s newest gem, Seydou Doumbia had a very impressive past couple of seasons for former club, Switzerland’s Young Boys, for whom he scored a prolific 50 goals in 64 appearances. These performances drew the attention of CSKA, who signed the talented striker in January of 2010, with the player officially transferring over in July of 2010. A fast player with great finishing ability, Doumbia has the potential to turn into a quality striker, and gives CSKA’s already loaded front line yet another option. Doumbia has also represented Ivory Coast on the senior national level, having appeared 5 times and scored one goal for the squad, and should be a big part of their team for years to come.
