With Cameroonian and French blood running through his veins, Kevin began his playing career at an early age, with local club-side, CSF Bretigny.

From 2003 to 2005, Kevin spent his time honing his skills at the French institute for football but in 2005, FC Girondins de Bordeaux decided to give the young player a taste of a professional set-up. He was brought into the club and placed in the academy structure for a year. In 2006, Kevin moved into the first made but his first team debut for the club only in 2008. Since then, has only managed to play three-more games and remains the third-choice goalkeeper in the squad.

Kevin has also spent 2009-10 out on loan to Angers SCO, in search of more playing time. He played 19 times on that loan move, before returning to Bordeaux. In 2009, Kevin was also called up to the French Under-19 team, where he was the first choice goalkeeper and made six appearances.
