Club career
[edit]Avom began his senior career at Cameroonian club Fauve Azur, based in the capital Yaoundé, playing 72 games for the club. There he would be spotted by Lorient in France, with whom he signed a 3 year deal with in 2023.[2] He would make his debut for the club in September of that year, coming on as a substitute for the reserve team in a 4-2 Championnat National 2 victory over Borgo.[3] He would go on to make 18 appearances for the Lorient II team that season as the team was relegated.
The first team was relegated that same season[4] and Avom became a regular fixture in the side for the 2024–25 season, scoring his first goal for the club and his first in European football in a 2-1 away win over Red Star in February 2025.[5]
International career

He made these appearances while he was at Fauve Azur. He was called up to the senior team in 2024 for World Cup qualifying, but made no appearances.[6]
