Derby and Cardiff to honour Bamba
- Published
Derby County and Cardiff City will stage a minute of applause before Saturday鈥檚 Championship match to pay tribute to former Bluebirds captain Sol Bamba.
Bamba, who had been working as technical director at Adanaspor in Turkey, died last week at the age of 39.
Bamba had a spell training with Derby in 2016 and both clubs will wear black armbands as a mark of respect, with the minute of applause preceding kick-off.
The former Cardiff, Leeds United and Hibernian defender overcame non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 2021 but died last month in Turkey after being admitted to hospital.
The Ivory Coast defender - who also had spells with clubs including Leicester City, Middlesbrough and Dunfermline Athletic - won promotion with Cardiff in the 2017-18 season.
