Club career

Ulysse Obame-Ndong started his career playing as goalkeeper and he joined with his first professional football club at the age of 16 when he joined Amiens SC from a very mythical club of Racing Club de France Colombes 92. Two years later, he went on trials to London for Queens Park Rangers F.C. where he stayed two months before joining AFC Wimbledon[1] where he played with young talents such as Huw Johnson, Jim Fenlon. On October 2012, Ulysse joined Alki Larnaca F.C. as a free agent. On June 2013, he moved to Othellos Athienou.[2] During 2014-15 with Othellos he had a very good performance and he is considered an upcoming talent.

On 16 October 2016, Ndong joined Bulgarian First League side Lokomotiv Gorna Oryahovitsa[3] but he left the club in July 2017.[4]

On 1 September 2017, Ndong signed with Slavia Sofia.[5]

On 1 July 2018, Ndong signed with Qatari club Al-Khor for two years.[6] On 10 January 2020, he returned to Cyprus and joined Akritas Chlorakas.[7]

gollark: MediaWiki templating is horrifically mad.
gollark: No it wouldn't.
gollark: It's slightly useful for PotatOS if nothing else.
