Oporto Sports is deeply saddened by the passing of our client and friend, Sol Bamba, on Saturday 31st August.
In a social media post, Oporto director Dean Eldredge, said: “What awful news. What a man Sol was. Energy, warmth, compassion, and the heart of a lion. Despite being so successful in football and in life, he didn’t have even a hint of an ego. A family man, who was loved everywhere he went. Thoughts with his family. Heartbreaking.”
Sol, who was working for Adanaspor in Turkey, took ill before their game with Manisa. Our thoughts are with Sol’s wife, Chloe, their children, family and friends.
