Lucien Fridolin Owona-Ndong (born 9 August 1990) is a Cameroonian professional footballer who plays as a central defender for Spanish club UE Cornellà.

Club career

[edit]

Owona was born in Douala, and made his senior debut with AS Matelots in 2005. After spells at AS Cetef de Bonabéri and Les Astres FC,[1] he agreed to a contract with Paris Saint-Germain on 10 September 2009.[2]

After only appearing for PSG's B-team in Championnat de France amateur, Owona moved to Spain and joined Real Oviedo Vetusta on 31 January 2011.[3] Although he did not play with the side due to bureaucratic problems, he was still promoted to the first team in Segunda División B on 28 May.[4]

After leaving Oviedo, Owona continued to appear in the third level but also in Tercera División in the following years, representing SD Noja,[5] Arroyo CP, CF Villanovense (two stints)[6][7] and Caudal Deportivo.[8] In 2015, while representing Villanovense, he suffered racial abuse from the supporters of Real Betis B.[9]

On 17 January 2017, Owona signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Segunda División side AD Alcorcón.[10] He made his professional debut the following day, starting in a 0–2 Copa del Rey home loss against Deportivo Alavés.[11]

Owona scored his first professional goal on 19 February 2017, netting the first in a 1–1 home draw against Real Zaragoza.[12] On 22 July he terminated his contract,[13] and signed a three-year deal with fellow second-tier club UD Almería just hours later.[14]

On 22 January 2020, after suffering a serious injury, Owona cut ties with the Rojiblancos.[15] On 23 September, after nine months without a club, he signed for Extremadura UD in the third tier.[16]

International career

[edit]

After representing Cameroon at under-20 level, Owona was included in Hugo Broos's final 23-man squad for the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup.[17]

After failing to appear during the whole tournament, Owona made his full international debut on 13 June 2017, starting in a 0–4 friendly loss against Colombia.[18]
