Club career

Having previously played in the academies of Beerschot and Royal Antwerp in his native Belgium, Miangue moved to Italy in 2013 to join Serie A side Internazionale.[2] Miangue appeared on the bench for Inter for the first time on 10 April 2016.[2] He made his Serie A debut for the club on 28 August 2016, coming off the bench for Davide Santon in a 1–1 draw with Palermo.[1] Two days later he was rewarded with a new four-year deal with the club.[3] He made his UEFA Europa League debut for Inter on 29 September in a 3–1 loss to Sparta Prague. Miangue made a total of four appearances for the club before signing for Cagliari, initially on loan, and then permanently.

Cagliari

On 26 January 2017, fellow Serie A side Cagliari announced the signing of Miangue on loan for the remainder of the season, with the club retaining the option of purchase at the end thereof.[4] He made his debut for the club on 29 January and assisted Marco Borriello for a 92nd-minute equalizer in a 1–1 draw with Bologna.[5] He made two further appearances as Cagliari ended the season in 11th position. On 30 June, he signed for the club permanently.[6][7]

The following season, on 30 December, he received his first ever red card when he was sent off in a league win over Atalanta.[8]
