Born in N'Djamena, N'Doram begun his career with local Tourbillon FC, then spent three seasons in Cameroon with Tonnerre YaoundĂ©, one of the: biggest clubs in Sub-Saharan Africa.

In 1994â95, he netted 12 goals as Les Canaris won their seventh national championship â the first in 12 years â betteringââto a career-best 21 in the 1996â97 campaign (second-best in the competition).
Aged 31, N'Doram left Nantes and signed for fellow league side AS Monaco FC, winning the 1997 Trophée des Champions, but retired at the end of the season following persistent injury sustained during match against his former team. He then joined his last club's technical staff, working as a scout.
