Career

Youth years

A forward, Ndjoli began his career with spells at Tottenham Hotspur and Watford, before entering the academy at Brentford.[3] He was a part of the U15 team which won the Junior category at the 2012 Milk Cup.[4] He moved on to join the academy at Millwall and embarked on a two-year scholarship in 2014.[5] Despite scoring 20 goals in 24 matches for the U18 team and breaking into the U21 team during the 2015–16 season,[3] Ndjoli departed the club in June 2016 after failing to be awarded a professional contract.[5]

Bournemouth

Ndjoli signed his first professional contract to join the U21 team at Premier League club Bournemouth on an initial one-year deal in July 2016 and he was a part of the team which reached the 2017 Hampshire Senior Cup Final.[3][6] Ndjoli progressed sufficiently during the 2017–18 season to win his maiden first team call-up for a FA Cup fourth round match versus Wigan Athletic on 18 January 2018.[7] He remained an unused substitute during the 3–0 defeat and finished the campaign with 30 goals for the U21 team.[7][8] On 18 May 2018, it was announced that Ndjoli had signed a new one-year contract.[8] In July 2018, he departed Dean Court on loan until January 2019.[9]

Kilmarnock

On 4 July 2018, Ndjoli joined Scottish Premiership club Kilmarnock on loan until January 2019.[10] He made the first professional appearance of his career as a substitute for Eamonn Brophy after 70 minutes of a Scottish League Cup group stage shoot-out victory over St Mirren on 13 July 2018.[11] Ndjoli went on to score four goals in a four-game spell in late-July and early-August.[11]
