Cameroonian goalkeeper Frank Ipoua Vikoty is on the verge of joining Equatorial Guinean champions 15 Agosto, with the 21-year-old expected to sign a two-year contract ahead of the club’s CAF Champions League campaign.
The proposed move would take Ipoua into a new chapter of his career, while offering him the opportunity to compete on the continental stage with a club representing Equatorial Guinea in Africa’s premier club competition.
15 Agosto are set to face Comoros side Fomboni FC this Friday at the Amadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaoundé in their CAF Champions League opener.
From Lausanne to Canon
Ipoua began his career with Lausanne in the MTN Elite Two before enjoying an important spell with ISOHSA during the 2022-23 season.
He was part of the ISOHSA side that reached the semi-finals of the Cup of Cameroon, while the club also finished fifth in the MTN Elite Two championship.

The campaign represented an important stage in Ipoua’s development and helped establish him as one of the promising young goalkeepers in Cameroonian football.
He subsequently joined Canon Yaoundé, where he spent two seasons, including the 2025-26 campaign.
Away from the professional game, Ipoua was also part of the Back Council FC team that won the 2026 Tiko The Best Interquarters Competition.
A family connection to Equatorial Guinea
Ipoua’s potential move to Equatorial Guinea carries an added personal dimension.
The 21-year-old is of Cameroonian-Equatorial Guinean heritage, while his brother is a full international goalkeeper for the Equatorial Guinea national team.
That family connection gives Ipoua a natural link to the country where he could soon continue his professional career.
Champions League opportunity awaits
The timing of the potential transfer could hardly be more significant.
15 Agosto will begin their CAF Champions League campaign against Fomboni FC at the Amadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaoundé this Friday.
For Ipoua, joining a club competing in the Champions League would provide a valuable platform to test himself against opposition from across Africa and gain experience at the highest level of continental club football.
From his beginnings with Lausanne in the MTN Elite Two, through his breakthrough with ISOHSA and two seasons at Canon Yaoundé, to his recent success with Back Council FC, Ipoua’s career has steadily gathered momentum.
Now, at 21, the goalkeeper is on the verge of taking another significant step — potentially into Equatorial Guinea and onto the CAF Champions League stage.
