Career

[edit]

Meite was born to Ivorian parents and raised in a council estate in Roehampton, London Borough of Wandsworth.[3] After playing for AG Academy and Harrow Borough, Meite trialled with Leicester City (in October 2016) and Cardiff City (in December 2016).[4][3] He turned professional with Cardiff City in January 2017,[5] making his debut for the club as a substitute in place of Craig Noone during a 0–0 draw with Wigan Athletic on 22 April 2017.[6]

On 25 August 2017, Meite joined League Two side Crawley Town on loan until January 2018.[7]

After being released by Cardiff, Meite returned to Crawley on a permanent deal in February 2019.[8][9]

On 3 August 2019 it was announced that Meite would be joining National League side Woking on a one-month loan.[10] The loan was extended for a further month on 2 September 2019,[11][12][13][14] which was then extended again on 4 October 2019 until 30 January 2020.[15] On 4 March 2020, Meite then joined Bulgarian Second Professional Football League side Pirin Blagoevgrad on loan until the end of the season.[16]

He was released by Crawley at the end of the 2019–20 season.[17]

In July 2020, Meite joined League of Ireland Premier Division side Derry City on a deal until the end of the 2020 season.[18] Meite later left the club in December, following just 11 appearances all season.[19]

On 27 August 2021, Meite signed for Isthmian League Premier Division side, Wingate & Finchley[20] and went onto score on his debut during a 4–1 away defeat to Haringey Borough.[21]

Personal life

[edit]

In January 2018, Meite was charged with drink-driving at Brighton Magistrates' Court, following a speeding offence in Hove on 31 December 2017.[22] He was banned from driving for 17 months and made to pay a £380 fine plus £85 costs and £38 victim surcharge.[22]

In July 2020 he was charged with stabbing a man in September 2019 in Putney.[23] In early 2022 he went on trial, accused of stabbing a man in the back in a "premeditated and not provoked attack" in a London street. In the same incident he was also stabbed running away by the person he was alleged to have stabbed.[24]

On 15 December 2022, Meite was sentenced to 15 months in prison.[25]
