Yannick Nzie (born 16 November 1991 in Cameroon) is an American-Cameroonian footballer who plays for Defensor La Bocana of the Peruvian Segunda División as of 2017. He mostly operates as an offensive midfielder.[4]

Career[edit]

One of four foreigners flown in to play for Defensor La Bocana in 2016,[5] Nzie only featured once that year, in a 2–0 loss to Alianza Universidad and was given the nickname 'Pepito'.[4] The Cameroonian-born American found it difficult to adapt as he rarely made the roster.[4]

Having a trial with Estonian outfit Lokomotiv Johvi in summer 2014,[6] the club decided not to buy him and the move never transpired.
