[edit] Club career

[edit] Early career

Job was born in the French city of Lyon, there he enjoyed a bright start to his footballing career and began training with the famous Olympique Lyonnais club at the age of ten. In his first season there, he scored a remarkable 13 goals in 14 games.

Job joined RC Lens in France in 1999 and made several notable performances for Lens. He scored a number of goals for Lens in the 1999/2000 season UEFA Cup. This impressed Middlesbrough former manager Bryan Robson and he joined Middlesbrough in the summer of 2000 for £3million.

[edit] Middlesbrough

Job scored 19 goals in 94 total appearances for Middlesbrough. His highlight at Middlesbrough occurred when he scored a second minute goal to help them on their way to their first ever trophy, in a 2-1 win over Bolton Wanderers in the 2004 League Cup Final. Job consistently struggled to hold down a first-team spot at Middlesbrough, thus he was loaned-out twice, once at FC Metz (2002) and later at Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad (2005/06) and was frequently rumoured to be transferred away from Teesside. Job's struggle to win a first-team place became even more difficult following the signings of established Premiership strikers Mark Viduka, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Yakubu.

Job's contract with Middlesbrough expired after his most recent loan spell with Al-Ittihad. Job spent part of the 2006/2007 pre-season training with FA Premiership side Watford but was not offered a contract.

[edit] CS Sedan

Job joined the Ligue 1 club CS Sedan in October 2006. He scored 10 goals in 28 appearances for Sedan in 2006-07. He moved to Nice in summer 2007.

[edit] International career

Job was tipped early on to be a future French International player, however he followed his father's advice to instead accept a call-up to the Cameroon national team.

He has represented the Cameroon national team at both the 1998 and 2002 World Cups.

[edit] Personal life

Job describes himself as a committed Muslim.[1]
