Club career

[edit]

Manga began playing in the Paris Saint-Germain youth academy.[2] In 2007, he played with SC Eisenstandt in Austrian Regional League East.

In 2008, he signed a contract with TSV 1860 Munich and played three seasons for their second team in the German Regionalliga Süd.[3] After 2010 he was a non-used substitute on several occasions at 1860 Munich main team, however he failed to make an appearance.

On 15 August 2011, after passing trial period and finishing medical exams, he signed with Serbian SuperLiga champions FK Partizan.[4] He made his debut on 21 September 2011, in a 2011–12 Serbian Cup match against FK Novi Pazar, as a substitute of Saša Ilić in the 73rd minute. His league debut only happened on 22 October 2011, in the round 9 match against Javor with Manga entering in the 87th minute of the match.[5] On 21 April 2012, he scored his first league goal in a shot after a long run in the 93rd minute of the 25th round match against Smederevo. He was a substitute at that match, when Avram Grant brought him into the game in 81st minute, a move which ended up being decisive as Manga was involved in the action of the first goal and scored the second in the 2–0 victory of his side.[6]

In summer 2012 he joined Israeli Premier League side Hapoel Ramat Gan on a loan deal.[7]

On 9 June 2017, Manga signed a two-year contract with Azerbaijan Premier League side Zira FK,[8] but had his contract cancelled by mutual consent on 15 December 2017.[9]

After returning to France and spending the 2019–20 season with French lower league side FC Franconville,[10] Manga joined Championnat National 3 club Racing Besançon in June 2020.[11]
