And 'in fact came the call of Manchester City. Kuaté shows interesting twists and grows quickly in Manchester, where through thick and thin stands out from the other clubs in youth tournaments. So much so that, driven by his attorney chooses to leave the City for groped an adventure of life in their Super Lig.[3] On 8 March 2014, Kuaté made his professional debut with Akhisar in a 2013–14 Süper Lig match against Galatasaray.[4]
In Akhisar started well, under the watchful eye of one who knows how to do with young people: Hamza Hamzaoglu. However, with the new season come other problems for the Cameroonian passport Portuguese: a dispute with Technical Director Mustafa Reşit Akçay puts him on the edge of the club, which decided to dissolve his contract on December 8, 2014.
