AMARA SIMBA: The Senegal-born French international striker will celebrate his 37th birthday next week as a player at Leyton Orient, the club he joined for nothing in October. Simba's illustrious career has seen him play for, among others, Paris St Germain, Caen and Marseilles (where at one stage he partnered Eric Cantona). He played for 18 months in Mexico before joining the Os, for whom he has played eight games and scored two goals so far. Simba has played four times for France, including one substitute appearance against England, and has scored a total of two international goals.
