Club career

Born in Yaoundé, Eteki signed for Sevilla FC's youth setup in December 2012, from CD Leganés.[1] He made his senior debut for the reserves on 22 February 2015, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–0 Segunda División B home win against FC Cartagena.

On 11 December 2015, Eteki renewed his contract until 2018.[2] He made his professional debut on 21 August of the following year, starting in a 3–3 Segunda División home draw against Girona FC.[3]

After being a regular starter during the first half of the campaign, Eteki extended his deal until 2019 on 20 January 2017.[4] He scored his first professional goal on 16 April, netting the first in a 6–2 home routing of Real Valladolid.

On 23 August 2018, after suffering relegation, Eteki signed a two-year deal with fellow second division side UD Almería.[5] He became a regular starter in Fran Fernández's side, contributing with 31 appearances during the campaign.

On 17 July 2019, Eteki returned to Sevilla after the club activated his €500,000 buy-back clause.[6] The following day, he agreed to a three-year deal with Granada CF, newly promoted to La Liga.[7]

International career

Eteki made his debut with the Cameroon national team in a friendly 0-0 tie with Japan on 9 October 2020.[8]
