On loan last season at Sevilla Fc with which he won the Europa League, the indomitable Lions midfielder whose contract with the English club of Queen Park Rangers ends this month, has not been renewed by the club leaders.
His teammate, the former Tottenham Defender always found no takers on the transfer market.
It was the sporting Director of Sevilla Fc, Ramon Rodriguez Verdejo himself who confirmed last Tuesday that he would not remove the option of purchase for Stéphane Mbia. «We have not removed the option of purchase for Stéphane Mbia, I believe that he is now free to go and already has an idea of his future, unleashed the unrestrained technician.
Yet an author of a full season with the club Sevilla, the performance of the Cameroonian international (who has played 28 games and scored 5 goals), were unable to persuade the leadership to exercise the option of purchase for him.
Mbia dreams to be coached by José Mourinho, the now former coach of Samuel Eto’o at Chelsea.
"My dream is to be coached by Mourinho, and I hope that this will become a reality in the future, he said recently. I want to play in the Champions League in the future even though I am bound at Sevilla FC because they have done a lot for me. "Next year, I would like to try to win something, maybe the champions League, but I don't know where," he said.
Benoît Assou-Ekotto, on his part is requested to leave the club.
The Cameroonian does not future any more in the plans of André Villas-Boas, then coach of Tottenham, who had caused his loan to QPR.
After helping the London team win the elite, leaders of the club have refused to sign the Cameroon international since the transfer market has dropped considerably due to his poor performance in the World Cup tainted by his brawl with teammate Benjamin Moukandjo during the match of the second day against Croatia.
What further blacken the C.V. of the 30 years old, who could find itself without club since Tottenham, is that the club with which he is still under contract has not shown any desire to reinstate him in his squad
