Moustapha Bokoum (born 5 August 1999) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a forward.
After ascending the youth ranks at Gent, Bokoum began attracting the attention of several English and Italian teams.[1] In June 2018, he signed a professional contract with newly-promoted Ligue 2 side Béziers.[2] The deal was for two years, with the option of a third.[1] He made his professional debut on 3 August, replacing Rayane Aabid in the closing minutes of a 1–0 defeat to AC Ajaccio.[3] He left the club by the end of the 2018–19 season.[4]
Bokoum remained without club until 24 January 2020, where he returned to K.A.A. Gent.[5] Bokoum played with Gent's reserve team until left the club at the end of his contract on 30 June 2020. He also suffered a serious knee injury in the same summer, which would keep him sidelined for about 6–8 months.[6]
