Club career

Boey made his professional debut with Rennes in a 2–2 Ligue 1 tie with Toulouse FC on 5 May 2019.[1]

On 5 October 2020, Boey joined Dijon on a season-long loan.[2]

On 26 July 2021, Galatasaray announced that a contract valid until the end of the 2024–25 season was signed with professional football player Boey.[3][4]

International career

Born in France, Boey is of Cameroonian descent and eligible for both nations.[5] He was a youth international for France in the under-17, under-18 and under-20 age groups.[6]

Boey was selected in the initial Cameroon squad for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, but was omitted from the final squad. In March 2022, Boey was included in the initial squad for Cameroon's 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Algeria,[7] but was once again omitted from the actual squad.[8]

Cameroon manager Rigobert Song stated in September 2022 that Boey had been contacted, but that the Cameroon national team would not "wait around every day" for the player to make a decision on his international future.[9]
