Career

Professional career
[edit]In September 2023, he was transferred to the Belgian Pro League club RWD Molenbeek,[8] a sister club of Lyon belonging to John Textor's Eagle Football Holdings Limited, without any transfer fee but with a 50% sell-on clause for Lyon on any future transfer profit.[9] On 28 September 2023, he made his professional debut in his team's 2–3 defeat against Union SG. On 16 December 2023, Mboup scored his first goal at the professional level and also assisted once to help his team win 3–0 against Sint-Truidense.[10]
In July 2024, he joined Pau FC in Ligue 2, signing a 3-year contract. He was given the number 9 shirt.[11] During the 2024–25 Ligue 2 pre-season, Mboup made a strong impression by scoring a hat-trick in a friendly match against Real Sociedad B, demonstrating his potential to become a key player for the team and make fans forget about Mons Bassouamina, who had left the club earlier in the summer.[12] In his debut for Pau FC in Ligue 2, Mboup made an impact by assisting Taïryk Arconte in a 2–2 draw with Clermont Foot at the Stade Gabriel-Montpied.
