Club career

Early life and career

Faupala was born in Bully-les-Mines, Pas-de-Calais.[3] He joined Lens' youth setup in 2010, aged 13. After impressing within the youth sides with Lens, Faupala agreed to join Premier League side Manchester City on a three-year contract until 2018.[4]

Manchester City

The 18-year-old immediately linked up with Manchester City Development Squad following his move and managed to score in his first friendly appearance for the club while on pre-season tour in Spain.

After experiencing a rich vein of form for the reserve side, netting four times in twelve appearances, Faupala was called up to the senior side ahead of Manchester City's FA Cup fifth round tie away to Premier League champions Chelsea.[5] On 21 February 2016, Faupala made his senior debut in the 5–1 defeat, playing the full 90 minutes and scoring the equalising goal for City in the 37th minute.[6]

Loan to NAC Breda

On 10 August 2016, Faupala was loaned to NAC Breda for the 2016–17 season.[7] He made his debut on 19 August, as a 75th minute substitution for Thomas Agyepong in a 2–1 loss to Maastricht.[8] His next appearance would come a month later on 20 September, when he would start in a KNVB Cup match, a 2–0 loss against VVV-Venlo.[9] He scored his first goal for the club on 25 November during a 1–3 loss to SC Cambuur.[10] The loan was ended on 2 January 2017, with Faupala having played 4 games.[11]

Loan to Chesterfield

On 31 January 2017, Faupala was loaned to EFL League One side Chesterfield until 30 April 2017.[12] He made his debut on 4 February, playing 90 minutes against Oldham Athletic.[13] He scored his first goal for Chesterfield in his second match, a 3–1 loss to Northampton on 11 February.[14] On 25 March, Faupala was shown a straight red in stoppage time for kicking out at an opponent, in a 3–1 loss to Rochdale.[15]

Zorya Luhansk

Faupala announced on 6 November 2017 via an Instagram post that he had left Manchester City.[16] On 6 February 2018 he signed 2+1 year contract with Ukrainian Premier League club Zorya Luhansk.[17] He made his debut on 18 February 2018, playing 90 minutes in Zorya's 2–0 victory against Karpaty Lviv.[18]

On 10 September 2019, Faupala joined Norwegian First Division side Jerv.[19]
