Early career edit

N'Douassel began his career in 2006 at local side Tourbillon before moving to Algeria in 2007 to play for MC Oran and he joined USM Blida.

In his debut for USM Blida, Ndouassel scored a brace against MC El Eulma, with goals in the 86th and 90th minute to give his team a 2–1 win. He would end the season with five goals in fifteen appearances. During his time at USM Blida, N'Douassel was linked with a number of European clubs including Olympique de Marseille, Arsenal, Monaco and Mallorca.[3] On July 20, 2009, it was announced that Ndouassel joined Belgian club FCV Dender on a free transfer and signed a 3-year contract worth €200,000 after impressing on trial in friendlies against Roeselare and Hamme.[4] However, the move was not finalized and Ndouassel was forced to return to USM Blida shortly after because he was still under contract with the club.[5]
