Afterwards, Gogoua unexpectedly left the club in March 2012, allegedly going on a trial to Thailand.[1] At that time he had been with the club for three years, ever since he joined Africa Sports coming from Sabé Sports de Bouna.[2] He subsequently spent some time playing with Issia Wazy, before moving abroad to Finland.[3]
