Yannick "Yala" Bolasie (born May 24, 1989 in Lyon , France ) is a Congolese football player . As a tricky and quick winger , he achieved his sporting breakthrough at Crystal Palace from 2012 after stints at clubs such as Plymouth Argyle , Barnet FC and Bristol City . He is under contract with Everton FC .

Athletic career

Bolasie was in French Lyon born and raised in northwest London district of Brent in the district of Willesden on. He first learned to play football in the youth division of Rushden & Diamonds . He gained his first experience in the senior sector in the Southern League for Hillingdon Borough . At the age of 17 he made his first appearance in the first team and as a technically talented, fast winger, he quickly began to assert himself against opponents who were often physically very robust. As an 18-year-old, he moved to Malta to join FC Floriana . His cousin Lomana LuaLua got him a trial training there and the club from the Maltese top division signed him - regardless of the fact that only three foreign players were allowed in the team.

In July 2008, Bolasie returned to England. He signed on with the second division club Plymouth Argyle , and TSG Hoffenheim and Sturm Graz are said to have been interested. In the first year and a half, however, he did not get a chance in Plymouth. Instead, he played on loan first in the fifth-rate Conference National for Rushden & Diamonds and then twice in the overlying Football League Two for Barnet FC . After the turn of the year 2009/10 he got his first probation opportunities in Plymouth. Paul Mariner had recently taken over the coaching position from Paul Sturrock . In his debut on February 13, 2010 away from Barnsley FC , he was substituted in in the second half and in the further course of the 0-1 deficit was converted into a 3-1 win. Two weeks later he scored his first goal for the "Pilgrims" in the 3: 4 defeat by Sheffield United . Ultimately, however, the season ended for him after 16 championship appearances with relegation to the third division . It followed another year as a regular in Plymouth, but after seven goals in 35 league appearances Bolasie suffered the second relegation in a row .

For the 2011/12 season, Bolasie moved back to the second division for Bristol City . There he met his former teammate and colleague on the outside position Albert Adomah again. After only a year, however, he left Bristol again because he wanted to return to London. Fittingly, the second division competitor Crystal Palace found an interested party from the capital and so Bolasie moved there in August 2012.

At his new club, he was immediately an important part of the team that ultimately achieved promotion to the Premier League . Bolasie himself was then voted into the "second division team of the year" (PFA Team of the Year) and in the play-off semifinals against Brighton & Hove Albion he prepared Wilfried Zaha's first goal (in the final win against Watford FC he was not used). In spring 2013, he also played his first international matches for the DR Congo as part of the World Cup qualification for Brazil . Both his debut against Libya on March 24, 2013 and the two following games in June 2013 - again against Libya and then against Cameroon - ended goalless.

In the Premier League, Bolasie was a regular for Crystal Palace in the 2013/14 season. In his 29 appearances, however, he did not succeed in his own hit. In another three years at Crystal Palace, he scored 13 goals in a total of 144 competitive appearances, mostly on the left wing, but later also more centrally or less often as the right wing. Due to an injury in December 2015 he had to sit out 11 games, but after his return at the end of February 2016 he was able to take a permanent place in the starting line-up after two games. His greatest sporting success while at Crystal Palace was reaching the FA Cup final in the 2015/2016 season, where Manchester United was only defeated after extra time.

After the first matchday of the 2016/17 season , the player moved to Everton and signed a five-year contract. On August 25, 2018, it was loaned to Aston Villa for one season . Because he did not perform as expected there, the loan was ended in January 2019. A few days later, a new loan for the remainder of the 2018/19 season was agreed between Everton and the Belgian first division club RSC Anderlecht .

At the end of the 2018/19 season, Bolasie will return to Everton FC.
