Career edit

As a child, Goujon played for his home city club, FC Sens. When he moved to college, he was spotted at a tournament by AJ Auxerre and joined their B team in 2014, aged 18.[1] He made his Ligue 2 debut for the first team as a late substitute in a 0–0 draw at Red Star, the first game of the 2016–17, on 30 July 2016.[2] He made his full debut on 12 August 2016 in a 4–2 win at Bourg-en-Bresse.[3] On 14 December 2016, after becoming a regular in the first team, he signed his first professional contract with the club.[4]

In October 2017, Goujon was loaned to Boulogne in the Championnat National. He scored his first senior league goal whilst at the club, on 16 February 2018 in a 2–1 win over Chambly.[5] After the loan he returned to Auxerre, where he was a part of the first team squad for the 2018–19 Ligue 2 season. At the end of the season, he was not successful in negotiating a contract extension, and left Auxerre.[6]

On 16 July 2019, Goujon signed for Red Star.[1]

He moved to Ligue 2 side US Orléans in June 2020.[7]
