Career
Beniangba played at the Young Boys Football Academy, before joining his local side Bayelsa United FC, for whom he played in the CAF Confederation Cup in 2021. He signed with the Egyptian side Ceramica Cleopatra, but was immediately loaned to Cairo-based side Tala'ea El Gaish SC in February 2022.[2] He scored six goals in eighteen games in the Egyptian Premier League for Tala’ea El Gaish.[3]
Beniangba became a transfer target for K.R.C. Genk in August 2022.[4] The signing was seen as controversial by Spanish side Celta Vigo who considered themselves as signing the player and appealed to FIFA for regulation.[5] In September 2022 Beniangba made his debut for Jong Genk in the Challenger Pro League.[6][7] He scored his first goal for Jong Genk on October 16, 2022, in a 3–2 home win over RSCA Futures.[8][9]
Personal life
In January 2023 it was revealed Beniangba had married his girlfriend in a traditional ceremony.[10]
