Turkish side Trabzonspor have signed defender Sol Bamba from Leicester City for an undisclosed fee.
Bamba, signed from Scottish Premier League side Hibernian for £250,000 in January 2011, made 55 appearances for City, scoring four times. Last season the 27-year-old started 33 games, but missed a month of the season while playing for the Ivory Coast at the African Nations Cup.
He will be best remembered by City fans when he scored after 17 seconds on his debut against Manchester City in an FA Cup Third Round tie at the King Power Stadium, a game which ended 2-2.
The Ivorian will join up with countryman Didier Zokora at Trabzonspor and will play in this season's Europa League after finishing third in the Turkish Super Lig.
