Sammy N'Djock is one of a growing number of African players plying their trade in Turkey.

After coming through the youth ranks at French club Lille, whom he joined as a teenager, the goalkeeper was hoping to break through into the senior side.

When that did not happen, he moved to Turkish club Antalyaspor in 2010. He was loaned out to newly promoted Fethiyespor at the beginning of the 2013/14 season and received regular playing time with the club based in Fethiye.

The 24-year-old was in goal when the club, playing in its first-ever season in the top flight, recorded arguably their best-ever result, knocking Turkish giants Fenerbahce out of the cup with a 2-1 victory in Istanbul.

N'Djock, whose main strengths in goal are his rapid reflexes and strong positional sense, was called up regularly as the Indomitable Lions secured a second consecutive appearance at the FIFA World Cup™, but he failed to get on the pitch.

It would come as a major surprise if he gets off the bench in Brazil, but with time on his side and experienced still to be gained, he could well become his country's number one goalkeeper in the future.
