Career
Summarize
Perspective
On 1 September 2016, Mapuku signed a contract with Turkish club Bandırmaspor, but ended up playing only two league games.[3]
On 11 October 2016, he returned to Beroe Stara Zagora.[4]
Levski Sofia
On 22 May 2017, Mapuku signed a two-year contract with Levski Sofia, joining the team from the 2017–18 season.[5] He soon claimed himself "The Black Power".[6] On his debut for the club, Mapuku scored two goals in an eventual 3–1 win against Sutjeska in the Europa League 1st qualifying round.[7] In the same match he scored the quickest goal ever for Levski in European tournaments, finding the net after just 13 seconds. On 18 August 2017, Mapuku scored his debut goals in the league against Pirin Blagoevgrad, scoring a hattrick for the 3:0 win.[8] It was the quickest hattrick scored by a foreigner in the club history after just 18 minutes (between the 74th and 92nd minute).[9]
Shijiazhuang Ever Bright
After being deemed surplus to the requirements by Levski Sofia manager Delio Rossi, Mapuku signed a one-and-a-half-year contract with Chinese club Shijiazhuang Ever Bright on 30 January 2018.[10]
Al Shorta
Slavia Sofia
In October 2021, Mapuku returned to Bulgaria, agreeing terms with Slavia Sofia for two seasons.[12] However, he made only a few appearances for the team without managing to score and was released in February 2022 after falling out of favor with the manager Zlatomir Zagorčić.[13]
