Nicolas Brice Moumi Ngamaleu (born 9 July 1994) is a Cameroonian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Cypriot First Division club Pafos and the Cameroon national team.

Club career

Ngamaleu was still only 17 when he made his Elite One debut with Coton Sport FC de Garoua. He won three domestic titles in his home land before moving to Austria in 2016. He helped Rheindorf Altach finish fourth in the Austrian league.[2]

He was part of the Young Boys squad that won the 2017–18 Swiss Super League, their first league title for 32 years.[3]

On 8 September 2022, Ngamaleu signed with Dynamo Moscow in Russia for two seasons, with an option to extend.[4]

In the 2023–24 season, Ngamaleu scored two winning goals, both deep in added time against Sochi and Baltika Kaliningrad on 5 May and 11 May respectively, as Dynamo overtook Zenit and Krasnodar to take a 2-point lead in the Russian Premier League table with 2 games to go.[5][6] On 18 May, he scored an added-time goal in third consecutive game, establishing the final score in a 4–1 victory over Krylia Sovetov.[7]

On 1 June 2024, Dynamo confirmed that the performance-based extension option for the 2024–25 season has been triggered in his contract.[8] On 2 August 2024, Ngamaleu extended his contract with Dynamo for the 2025–26 season, with an option for 2026–27.[9] On 26 June 2026, Ngamaleu left Dynamo as his contract expired.[10][11]

On 3 August 2026, Ngamaleu signed a two-year contract with Cypriot First Division side Pafos.[12]

International career

Ngamaleu made his debut with the Cameroon national team against Guinea on 28 March 2017.[2] He was included in the Cameroon squad for the 2017 Confederations Cup in Russia.[13]

He placed third with Cameroon at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, where he supplied two assists and converted one penalty in the penalty shoot-out against Burkina Faso in the third-place playoff. He started in six out of seven matches and played one half in the last game.

On 10 November 2022 he was selected by Rigobert Song to compete in the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
