Those from Farul would have agreed with Tony Nijke for a contract valid for three years, according to those from iamsport.ro. Tony Njike will arrive at Quevilly Lighthouse – Rouen Metropole (QRM), where he captained the previous season. QRM finished 13th in the previous Ligue 3 season. His contract with the French side expires this summer.
Tony Nijke was brought up by the players of Bordeaux, and then transferred to Ajaccio. In 2021 he arrived at SO Cholet, on loan from Ajaccio. In 2023, he was transferred by FC Argeș, and after only one season in Romania, he returned to his native country, free of contract. He signed with Chateauroux, and then came to QRM.
He has the most career games for QRM: 51 and 5 assists. It has no presence in Ligue 1, but only in Ligue 2 and the French third tier.
In an interview given to GSP.ro during the time he was at FC Argeș, the midfielder revealed that the level in the Romanian soccer team is good, and he likes the country.
First of all, I want to say that the level in the first league of Romania is a very good one. As for me, I have positive feelings on the pitch, now we are trying to stay in the winning zone. I feel good in Pitesti, it's a quiet and beautiful city
I like Kante, for me he is the best midfielder in the world. I feel good with Garita, my role is to recover balls and make others shine
