Tough and uncompromising, Bamba stands at a towering 6' 3", and is a formidable obstacle to come up against. His nononsense tackling has won him plenty of fans and admiration wherever he has played. Bamba began his career with Ligue 1 club Paris Saint-Germain at the age of 14. In 2006, he moved to Dunfermline, where his big challenges made him an instant idol. During his time there, Bamba became a much-improved player, and as a result in 2008 he moved to Scottish Premier League side Hibernian, where he showed his versatility by playing in a defensive midfield role before ably filling the void left by former club captain Rob Jones at centre-half. Sol was ever present for Ivory Coast's 2010 African Cup of Nations campaign.</blockquote>
