Fenerbahce forward Mbwana Samatta has stated he would not put blame on anyone for his struggles at Aston Villa.
The Taifa Stars skipper, 27, signed for the Birmingham side in January but ended up struggling for playtime and goals under Dean Smith. Samatta became the first Tanzanian to feature in the English competition but the struggles led to his exit after just half-a-season with Aston Villa where he scored just once.
“I cannot blame anyone about what happened at Aston Villa, for me it was a great experience before I could join a big club like Fenerbahce,” Samatta told the Turkish’s club Online TV in his first interaction with reporters since signing the new deal.
