WINNIPEG, MB. - Valour FC today announce the team has re-signed Congolese international player Arnold Bouka Moutou.

Moutou, 31, joined Valour FC on February 28, 2020 after spending the past three seasons in France's top professional division (Ligue 1) with Dijon FCO.

"Arnold provides invaluable insight for our developing players, and is a terrific footballer," said Valour FC Head Coach & GM, Rob Gale. "We're delighted to have him back and can't wait to see his talent on display throughout a full season."

In 2020, the defender made one appearance before suffering a hamstring injury that would sideline him until the club's final match of The Island Games against Forge FC, where he made his second appearance.

In 2012, the defender joined France's Angers SCO, a team competing in the second division of the country's national league (Ligue 2). In four seasons, Moutou played 5,794 minutes in 70 appearances, helping Angers SCO achieve promotion to one of the world's top national leagues, Ligue 1, in the 2014-15 season.

The following season, he made 23 appearances with Angers SCO (Ligue 1), scoring two goals. In 2016, the Reims, France native signed with French regional club Dijon FCO (Ligue 1), making 24 appearances over three seasons.
