Dorine Nina Chuigoué (born 28 November 1988) is a professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Spanish Liga F club Real Betis.

Born and raised in Cameroon to Cameroonian parents, Chuigoué has played in the Equatorial Guinean women's league and subsequently capped for the Equatorial Guinea women's national team.

Early life

Born and raised in Cameroon into a Cameroonian family, Chuigoué was the only female of five siblings. Living in a mostly male environment, she behaved like a man. During her childhood, she played football, tennis and basketball in her neighborhood. Then, her parents signed her to practice karate. She ultimately opted to pursue a career as a footballer.[2]

Club career

After being left in the Stade Omnisports by her brother and father,[2] Chuigoué started her career with Tonnerre Yaoundé.[3] She played originally as a forward, becoming at the time the best scorer in the Cameroonian league.[2] She had then had an offer to play in Singapore, but had to reject it due to her mother's opposition.[2]

In 2006, Chuigoué moved to Equatoguinean women's league club Águilas Verdes FC. In June 2010, she joined Estrellas de E'Waiso Ipola.

After playing the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup for the Equatorial Guinea national team, Chuigoué signed for Serbian women's league club Spartak Subotica.[4] She lasted one season there.[5] In mid-2012, she came back to the Equatoguinean league and returned to Estrellas de E'Waiso Ipola, where she played until 2017.

On 3 August 2017, Chuigoué rejoined by Serbian club Spartak Subotica. Next season, she moved to Spanish women's top league club EDF Logroño, playing along with her Equatorial Guinean teammate Jade Boho.

International career

Chuigoué just wanted to play for Cameroon, but was not called up despite her impressive performances at Tonnerre Yaoundé.[2] In 2006, she became a naturalised citizen of Equatorial Guinea. She debuted with the women's national team of that country during the 2006 African Women's Championship. She played in the 2011 World Cup.[6]
