Professional career

In January 2014, Tia arrived in Switzerland as an asylum seeker. He soon joined Chur 97 after asking to try out, and worked his way into their first team soon after.[1] On 18 February 2019, Tia signed a professional contract with FC Luzern.[2] Tia made his professional debut with Luzern in a 1-0 Swiss Super League win over Servette FC on 4 August 2019.[3]

gollark: Because that's new thing, and new thing bad.
gollark: Old thing was around when I was growing up. New thing was NOT. The implications are obvious.

gollark: I mean, cheap zero-carbon-dioxide power wouldn't fix EVERYTHING, but it would solve many of the climate-change-y issues we have, more so over time as many of the solutions to things require plentiful electricity.
gollark: Environmental damage is partly a fixable technical problem and partly a social one, because people are SILLY DODECAHEDRA who will not accept the obvious solution (to some things) of nuclear power. I'm also not convinced that reverting to horrible premodern living standards would *reduce* depression.
