Club career

edit

Born Aubervilliers, France, Soni was trained at the Centre de Formation de Football de Paris, commonly called CFFP, in the heart of Paris[1] before moving to his hometown club Aubervilliers. Following a stint there, he headed to the island of Corsica and joined Ligue 2 club Bastia. Due to injuries, he was called up to the first team for during 2008–09 season in Ligue 2. He made his professional debut on 29 August against Tours, coming on as a substitute in the 35th minute for the injured Hassoun Camara. He played the rest of the match as Bastia secured a 1–0 victory with a goal from Pierre-Yves André.[2] He made five straight substitute appearances in the league before making his first start 1 May against Vannes in a 3–1 win.[3] Ironically, he was substituted out in the 35th minute, due to an injury, and replaced by Hassoun Camara. In between those appearances, he had two solid starts in the Coupe de la Ligue against Strasbourg[4] and Châteauroux.[5]

On 27 March 2018, Azerbaijani club Neftçi announced the signing of Mustivar on a contract until the summer of 2019.[6] After extending his contract with Neftçi for an additional year in the summer of 2019, Mustivar left the club on 19 June 2020 after his contract expired.[7]

In January 2022, Mustivar signed for French club Entente SSG.[8] In July 2022, he joined Gueugnon.[9] In addition to playing for the club, Mustivar was also involved with the club's U15 team. When he hung up his boots in the summer of 2023, Mustivar was hired as coach for the club's U15 team.[10]
