FIFA World Cup™ Germany 2006 player's profile

ASEC Abidjan youngster Emmanuel Eboue followed the same career path as several of his Ivorian national team-mates, using Beveren as a springboard to launch his European career. After three seasons in Belgium, the versatile defender earned a transfer to Premiership giants Arsenal. At Highbury, he has started to break into the first team and his efforts so far have earned him high praise from Gunners manager Arsene Wenger. He won silver at the 2006 African Cup of Nations, where he played in five matches.

UEFA Champions League 2005-06 player's profile

Primarily a speedy right wing-back, Emmanuel Eboué can also play at centre-back or in midfield.

National team
Made his Ivory Coast debut in a 5-0 FIFA World Cup qualifying win against Sudan in September 2004.

Club
His career began at ASEC Abidjan in his homeland before a 2002 switch to Ivorian-friendly Belgian side KSK Beveren. Was immediately a regular and helped them to the 2004 Belgian Cup final, which they lost to Club Brugge KV but which earned them a UEFA Cup campaign.

2004/05: Was loaned to Arsenal FC in the summer, but returned to Beveren in the UEFA Cup group stage. Arsène Wenger had vowed to "keep an eye on" Eboué, and signed him in January on a five-year contract. He immediately made his debut in an FA Cup match against Stoke City FC, playing in two more ties for the eventual winners and also 15 minutes of a Premiership fixture against Southampton FC. Made an impression in 2005/06 pre-season, even appearing in a friendly against Beveren.

Did you know?
Married a Belgian in 2004 and has dual citizenship.
