Apoula Edima Edel Bete (born 17 June 1986) is a Cameroonian born-Armenian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Chennaiyin FC in the Indian Super League. ==Club Career== Apoula Edel was born in Yaoundé, Cameroon and moved to Armenia in 2002 and signed a contract with Pyunik FC in March 2003. In 2005 he joined Rapid Bucureşti along with Carl Lombé by unilaterally terminating his contract without just reason. Pyunik FC submitted the case to FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber, which the DRC passed a decision on 4 April 2007 and sent the decision to the parties on 3 August, which Edel was ordered to pay Pyunik US$15,000. He also claimed he was forced to naturalise during the court trial as an excuse to leave the country in 2005. The parties submitted the appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and CAS partially upheld the DRC decision and increased the fee to US$60,000 in 2008. After being released by Rapid Bucureşti, French club PSG signed Edel on a free transfer. Following his signing for the club, Edel was a second choice goalkeeper behind Mickaël Landreau, Jérôme Alonzo and Grégory Coupet. On 16 November 2007, he played his first game with PSG in friendly against Guinea, not as a goalkeeper but as a forward after an injury to Loris Arnaud. In his second season for PSG, Edel made his debut for PSG in a Coupe de France against AS Nancy with PSG won 2-1. Edel made his UEFA Cup debut against Wolfsburg. Under Le Guen, Edel just made 4 appearances. After Le Guen was sacked as PSG manager, Antoine Kombouaré succeeded him. Under Kombouaré, Edel started to get more playing time and established himself as a first choice goalkeeper after Grégory Coupet suffered an injury to his Malleolar on 28 November 2009 which kept him out of the season. On 16 December 2009, Edel made his league debut for PSG in a 1-1 draw Lens. In 21 January 2010, Edel scored an own goal in a 1-0 defeat to Monaco which turned out to be the winner. After Coupet recovered from injury, Edel was once again second choice goalkeeper but it was short lived after due to Coupet poor performance and discouragement in the early season. On 29 November 2010, Edel made a blunder in a match against Lyon as PSG missed the chance to go to the top of Ligue 1. Edel performance was defended by Kombouaré saying ''"I have nothing against Edel, I even have a thought for him. He is the most disappointed because his mistake cost us the win. Now we will support him and it will be up to him to erase that mistake.There is a lot of frustration, because we showed big mental strength and a lot of technical qualities too"'' Towards the end of the season, Coupet regained his first choice goalkeeper when he play against Lyon on 17 April 2011. Afterwards, Edel still the first choice goalkeeper for two more matches before Coupet regained again until the season finished. As his contract set to expire at the end of the season, reports claims that Edel could be on his way out of the club in the summer, with speculation regarding a possible replacement doing the rounds but the chairman Robin Leproux says Edel (along with Ludovic Giuly and Mamadou Sakho will be staying put. Eventually, Edel declined to stay at PSG after his contract was broken down and joined an Israeli club Hapoel Tel Aviv on a free transfer for a replacement for Vincent Enyeama who joined Lille. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Apoula Edel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
