Perspective
FK Pohronie
After over 5 years in French lower divisions, in August 2020, Bangala joined Slovak top division club FK Pohronie, citing great pleasure over the two-year deal, particularly considering the troubles and difficulties in the previous seasons.[1]
At the beginning of the season Bangala had replaced Ján Hatok, who had left the squad despite being a crucial part of the team in the 2019–20 season, playing as a right back.[2] Bangala, however, came to be utilised as a defensive midfielder instead. He made his competitive Fortuna Liga debut during an away fixture of the first round of the season at ViOn Aréna, on 8 August 2020, against ViOn Zlaté Moravce. Pohronie went two down during the first half, with ViOn's second goal coming from . Through Fadera and Weir late in the second half Pohronie managed to get a point from the match after a 2:2 tie.[3]
On 20 February, during a narrow 0:1 defeat at Tehelné pole against Slovan Bratislava, Bangala suffered a knee injury requiring surgery, which had removed him from action from most of the remaining fixtures of the season.[4]
Ayr United
In June 2022, Bangala joined Ayr United on a two-year contract, following the relegation of Pohronie to the Slovak second division.[5] After only making a handful of appearances, he was loaned to Cove Rangers for the remainder of the 22/23 season.[6] Bangala was released from Ayr in May 2023.[7]
