Robert Kidiaba: TP Mazembe legend launches clothing and football gear range

TP Mazembe and DR Congo legend Robert Kidiaba has launched an exciting new business venture as his colourful journey after professional football continues to thrive.

The 45-year-old former goalkeeper represents one of the most iconic figures in African football history with his famous 'bum shuffle' or 'donkey ride' celebration earning him global attention and a firm fan favourite on the continent.

And it's been that famed celebration that he's now using to launch his latest business adventure as he copyrighted the image to use as a logo for a clothing line and football gear.

From Golf Shirts to Footballs

The latest range unveiled consists of Golf T-Shirts with the Kidiaba logo in three different colours, while he's also come out with branded footballs and training bags which can be viewed in the gallery above.

His move towards entrepreneurship comes after an incredible career where he played over 600 times for Mazembe and won three CAF Champions League titles between 2002 and 2016 before his eventual retirement.

Did you know?

Kidiaba was elected a Member of Parliament in the DRC in January 2019.

Your thoughts, please?

Do you think it's a good idea for African footballers to become entrepreneurs rather than staying in the game as coaches?
