On 5 October 2020, Boey joined Dijon on a season-long loan.[2]

Galatasaray

On 26 July 2021, Galatasaray announced that a contract valid until the end of the 2024–25 season was signed with professional football player Boey.[3][4]

Boey became the champion in the Süper Lig in the 2022–23 season with the Galatasaray team. Defeating Ankaragücü 4-1 away in the match played in the 36th week on 30 May 2023, Galatasaray secured the lead with 2 weeks before the end and won the 23rd championship in its history.[5]

International career

Born in France, Boey is Cameroonian by descent and eligible for both nations.[6] He was a youth international for France in the under-17, under-18 and under-20 age groups.[7]

Boey was selected in the initial Cameroon squad for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, but was omitted from the final squad. In March 2022, Boey was included in the initial squad for Cameroon's 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Algeria,[8] but was once again omitted from the actual squad.[9]

Cameroon manager Rigobert Song stated in September 2022 that Boey had been contacted, but that the Cameroon national team would not "wait around every day" for the player to make a decision on his international future.[10]

On 31 May 2023, Boey has been selected for France national under-21 football team squad to play in Euro U-21 championship.[11] On 14 June 2023, he has been removed from the U21 squad due to an ankle injury and missed the U21 championship.[12]
