[edit] Career
Tchami began his career in his homeland with Unisport Bafang before moving to Danish side Vejle BK. After a short spell which involved relegation, Tchami moved to Odense BK where his form won him a move to Argentine side Boca Juniors shortly after the 1994 FIFA World Cup. In 1997, after three years in South America, Tchami returned to Europe with German side Hertha Berlin. Tchami spent two season with the Old Lady before a spell in the United Arab Emirates with Al-Wasl.
Tchami was on trial with Bolton Wanderers in July 2000[1] following his release and played in a couple of friendly matches on Bolton's tour of Denmark[2][3] before signing for Dundee United in August.[4] Tchami spent just four months at Tannadice, leaving in December[5] after playing in only four matches and failing to score. Nice was Tchami's next club, with the striker signing a short-term deal until the end of the season.[6] In August 2001, Tchami left France - putting what was termed a "bad spell" behind him[7] - and moved to Russian side Chernomorets,[8] before moving again, this time to Chinese side Shenyang Ginde. Tchami signed for Lebanese side Nejmeh in September 2003 but left after less than three weeks,[9] ending his career back in France with amateur side Épernay.
Tchami played in fifty-seven matches for Cameroon and was a participant at the 1994 and 1998 FIFA World Cups, in addition to the 1994 and 1996 African Cup of Nations. Something of a journeyman, Tchami's club career spanned twelve clubs over ten countries and four continents.
