N'Toko came in the summer of 2007 to AGOVV as a replacement to the departure of Dennis van der Ree to SC Cambuur.

In his second season at AGOVV he became a regular in the first squad, and was considered one of the best defenders of the Eerste Divisie.[2] In his third season N'Toko was placed to the centre back position due to the brakethrough of fellow AGOVV player Ramon Leeuwin, at the end of the 2009 season N'Toko was released from his contract in search for a new challenge.

Barnet

N'Toko joined Barnet on 15 February 2013,[6] and made his debut when he started in a 2–1 win at York City a day later.[7] Following Barnet's relegation at the end of the season N'Toko was released by the club.[8]
