Career

The-23-year-old, who came through the Bordeaux academy, is a free agent after leaving French club AC Ajaccio, who he joined in January 2009. [1]

Trial at Huddersfield Town

Anthony was on trial with English League One side Huddersfield Town, and had been recommended to Lee Clark by former Newcastle teammate Antoine Sibierski.

He received a standing ovation on his debut when he was brought off in the 87min for the Huddersfield Town Reserves in their narrow defeat to Middlesbrough Reserves losing 1–0.

This is what Lee Clark said about him:

"Anthony has got a good pedigree as a youngster at the Bordeaux academy, but he hasn't been associated with a club this season," said Clark, who had the player recommended by (former Newcastle teammate) Antoine Sibierski. [2]

"He's not played much football recently, but we've been impressed with what we've seen of him in training – he's got ability. [3]

Rodez

On 4 January 2010, the 23-year old midfielder who was a free agent after terminating his contract with AC Ajaccio had signed an 18-month deal with Rodez FC. [4]

International career

He represented his country Ivory Coast at the 2008 Olympic Games.
