Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Granollers, Barcelona, Catalonia, to a Congolese father and a Spanish mother, Mboula's parents met in China, and he spent two years of his youth there. At the age of 9, Mboula begun playing football with his local club CF Ametlla for six months, before joining EC Granollers for a year, and finally moving to FC Barcelona.[1]

Monaco

[edit]

A member of Barcelona's youth academy, La Masia, Mboula joined AS Monaco FC on 21 July 2017, keeping him at the club until 2022.[2] He made his professional debut for Monaco in a 0–0 Ligue 1 draw at home to Amiens SC on 28 April 2018, coming on as a substitute for Rony Lopes for the final six minutes.[3] On 19 May, in the last game of the season, he replaced the same player in added time and scored his first goal in a 3–0 win at relegated Troyes AC.[4]

On 15 July 2019, Mboula was loaned to Belgian side Cercle Brugge K.S.V. for one year.[5] The following 29 January, he returned to Spain after agreeing to a six-month deal with SD Huesca in Segunda División.[6]

Mallorca

[edit]

On 17 September 2020, Mboula signed a four-year contract with RCD Mallorca, recently relegated to the second division.[7] He featured regularly in his first season as the club returned to the top tier at first attempt, and made his debut in the category on 14 August 2021, starting in a 1–1 home draw against Real Betis.

On 31 January 2022, Mboula moved to Primeira Liga side Estoril on loan until June.[8] On 24 August, he moved to Racing de Santander in the second division, in a temporary one-year deal.[9]

Upon returning to Mallorca, Mboula rescinded his contract on 11 July 2023.[10]

Return to Racing Santander

[edit]

On 1 February 2024, Mboula returned to Racing Santander and signed a contract for the remainder of the 2023–24 season.[12] Although the club announced the signing as a free transfer, Mboula returned to Hellas Verona at the end of the season.[13] Other reports suggested the deal was a loan with a conditional obligation to make the transfer permanent if Racing achieved promotion to La Liga, which ultimately did not occur.[14]
