Club career

[edit]

Châteauroux

[edit]

Born in Le Blanc, of which his mother is a native, Johann Obiang possesses Gabonese nationality by his father, Serge. He started football in Ciron, where his father was then a leader. As a chick, Johann arrived at LB Châteauroux and then joined the Châteauroux Hope Pole at the age of 12. Johann rose to the ranks and signed his first professional contract in June 2013.[4] Capable of developing all over the left flank, commits until 2016.[5]

Obiang knows his first real season with professionals in the 2013-2014 exercise. With 33 games and his two goals scored, his season is considered correct.[6] He is followed by a second season (27 league appearances) where he is regularly called up with his national selection. The club situation is more complicated, with the Berrichonne being relegated to National. He made his third full season there (27 appearances, again, in the championship, for 3 goals) before joining the ES Troyes AC free and returning to Ligue 2.

Troyes

[edit]

On 9 June 2016, he initialled a two-year contract for ES Troyes AC.[7]

He made his debut under the Trojan jersey on 29 July 2016 against Sochaux at the Stade de l'Aube. A first season under the colors of Troyes that will see Obiang compete in a total of 26 matches in all competitions. In this 2016-2017 season, he will also experience the joys of the climb with the accession to Ligue 1 after going through a round-trip barrage match against FC Lorient (18th of Ligue 1).

On 5 August 2017, he contested his first League 1 match against Stade Rennais FC in the first day of the championship. Nevertheless, blocked by his competitor Charles Traoré, he will play only 8 games in this season, which will see his club relegated to Ligue 2.

In the 2018-2019 season, he will make 25 appearances in Ligue 2 under the Troyes jersey. The club will finish third in the championship but will fail in its quest for a climb following a defeat in the roadblocks against RC Lens. At the end of the season, Obiang will not be extended by the wooden club and will find himself free to engage wherever he wants.

Caen

[edit]

On June 28, 2022, the Stade Malherbe Caen announced Johann's signature to fill a potential start from the incumbent left side,[8] Ali Abdi, who was elected to the previous season's team in Ligue 2 and announced to leave for Ligue 1. He's signing a two-year contract.

Finally, Abdi stays at the club and Johann becomes his understudy. At the beginning of the season, he grapples playing time by working at the right side post.

He delivered his first decisive pass for Alexandre Mendy in Caen's victory against Amiens (3-1), on 10 September 2022.
