Bournemouth
In July 2016, Ndjoli signed his first professional contract to join the U21 team at Premier League club Bournemouth on an initial one-year deal and he was a part of the team which reached the 2017 Hampshire Senior Cup Final.[4][7] Ndjoli progressed sufficiently during the 2017–18 season to win his only first team call-up for a FA Cup fourth round match versus Wigan Athletic on 18 January 2018 and he remained an unused substitute during the 3–0 defeat.[3] After finishing the 2017–18 season with 30 goals for the U21 team,[8] it was announced in May 2018 that Ndjoli had signed a new one-year contract.[8]
On 4 July 2018, Ndjoli joined Scottish Premiership club Kilmarnock on a half-season loan,[9] which was later extended until the end of the 2018–19 season.[10] He made 31 appearances and scored five goals during the season, with four of the goals coming in a four-game spell in late-July and early-August 2018.[11]
After signing a new two-year contract at the end of the 2018–19 season,[10][12] Ndjoli spent much of the COVID-19-affected 2019–20 season away on loan at League One club Gillingham and Scottish Premiership club Motherwell.[13][14][15] He made 20 appearances and scored three goals across both spells.[16]
Despite Bournemouth's relegation to the Championship at the end of the 2019–20 season,[17] Ndjoli did not win a call into a first-team squad during the first half of the 2020–21 season.[3] On 1 February 2021, he agreed a mutual termination of his contract and he departed Dean Court.[18]
Barrow
On 1 February 2021, Ndjoli joined League Two club Barrow on a free transfer and signed a contract until the end of the 2020–21 season.[19] He made two substitute appearances before dropping out of the squad in late March and was released when his contract expired.[3][20]
Aldershot Town
On 5 October 2021, Ndjoli signed a contract with National League club Aldershot Town on a free transfer.[21] He ended the 2021–22 season with 23 appearances and a career-high six goals.[3] Ndjoli was offered a new contract in May 2022,[22] but elected to depart the club.[23]
Virginia Beach City FC
In June 2022, Ndjoli moved to the United States, to transfer to National Premier Soccer League club Virginia Beach City FC.[23] He scored four goals in five appearances,[24] before departing the club in mid-July 2022.[25]
Hartlepool United
On 22 July 2022, Ndjoli returned to England to sign a two-year contract with League Two club Hartlepool United.[25] He made 10 appearances during the first two months of the 2022–23 season and scored twice in a 2–0 EFL Trophy group stage win over Harrogate Town on 30 August 2022.[26] Following just one further appearance in January 2023,[26] Ndjoli played the final month of the season on loan at Northern Premier League Premier Division club Radcliffe.[27] He scored one goal in six appearances during his spell and was a part of the club's 2022–23 Manchester Premier Cup-winning squad.[28][29]
Following Hartlepool's relegation to the National League at the end of the 2022–23 season,[30] manager John Askey reported that he did not see Ndjoli as part of his plans for the 2023–24 season.[31] Ndjoli was not allocated a squad number for the season.[32] He spent much of the season on loan at National League North clubs Blyth Spartans and Spennymoor Town.[33][34][35][36][37]
Personal life
Born in England, Ndjoli is of Congolese descent.[38]
