\nFormer Asante Kotoko and Ghana youth international Michael Anaba has joined Lithuanian A Lyga side Kauno Zalgiris after ending his stay with Atzeneta Unio Esportiva in Spain.<\/p>\n
Anaba, 28, has joined the Lithuanian top-flight side on a one year deal with an option to extend for a further year.<\/p>\n

He joined the Porcupines from then Division One outfit Windy Professionals and, went on to play for Ghana at U-20 level.<\/p>\n
Anaba, has played in Spain for years, first joining Elche CF in 2013, and has also played for CA Alcoyano, CD Eldense and Ontinyent CF.<\/p>\n
The former Ghana youth international has also played in Uruguay for top-flight side Sud America.<\/p>\n
He will hope for good fortune in Lithuania with his new club and bring his career back and track and perhaps, be considered for national call-ups again.<\/p>\n
Kauno Zalgiris play their home games at the 500-capacity Darius and Girenas Stadium in Kaunas, Lithuania.<\/p>\n
Anaba was a member of the Ghana squad that competed in the 2013 African U-20 championships in Algeria where the Black Satellites finished second in the tournament.<\/p>\n
He also featured later that year in the U-20 World Cup in Turkey where Ghana placed third after beating Iraq 3-0 in a playoff.\u00a0<\/p>\n
