He signed for Opava in 2017.[1] In his first season with Opava, he achieved promotion to the top tier of Czech football, Czech First League.[2] He also won a National Football League Player of the Month award in that season.[3] He scored the winning goal in Opava's first Czech First League victory - a 2–0 home win against Jablonec on 1 September 2018.[4]
Viktoria Plzeň
In September 2018, Kayamba signed a contract with FC Viktoria Plzeň for a speculated transfer fee of €800,000. Opava chairman Marek Hájek revealed that this move constituted a record transfer revenue for the club, breaking the previous record that was the sale of Libor Kozák.[5] Kayamba would also stay at Opava on loan until the end of 2018.[6]
Personal life
He moved to the Czech Republic from France in 2013, married a Czech wife and has two children. He speaks four languages fluently: French, English, Czech and Lingala.[7]
