Yonis Njoh (born 17 January 2004) is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward for Ligue 2 club Pau FC.[1]
Yonis Njoh began playing football with L'Union Saint Jean Football Club in L'Union, near Toulouse.[2] He joined the Toulouse FC academy at the U12 level after impressing during trials and steadily progressed through the ranks. At 14, he joined the Castelmaurou elite training centre.[3][4]
After three years at Toulouse, Njoh chose to leave the club in search of new opportunities, declining a one-year amateur contract.[2] He signed with US Orléans, where he quickly made an impression during an internal match. This led to his integration into the professional squad by coach Xavier Colin, bypassing the reserve team entirely. Despite a mid-season coaching change with Nicolas Usaï replacing Colin, Njoh continued to progress and made his debut in the Championnat National, the third tier of the French football league system, in February 2023.[5]
In July 2023, Njoh transferred to Pau FC from US Orléans after just one season. He made his professional debut with Pau in a 3–0 Ligue 2 victory against FC Girondins de Bordeaux on 7 August 2023.[6]
Njoh scored his first professional goal at the Stade Armand-Cesari against SC Bastia, helping Pau FC secure a 4–1 victory.[7]
During the summer 2024 pre-season, Njoh excelled as a starter, scoring three goals, including one against his former club Toulouse.[8] With key players like Mons Bassouamina and Moussa Sylla departing,[9] Njoh sees an opportunity to cement his place in the team, aiming to build on the promise he showed during his first season with Pau.[2]
Born in France, Njoh is of Cameroonian descent and holds both French and Cameroonian nationalities.[10] His older brother, Lilian Njoh, is a defender for Salernitana.[11]
