Albert Meyong Zé (born 19 October 1980), known as Meyong, is a Cameroonian footballer who plays for Portuguese club Vitória F.C. as a striker.
He spent most of his professional career in Portugal, amassing Primeira Liga totals of 219 games and 78 goals over the course of 12 seasons and representing mainly in the competition Vitória de Setúbal (five 1/2 years) and Braga (three 1/2).
Meyong appeared with Cameroon at the 2006 Africa Cup of Nations.
Born in Yaoundé, Meyong started playing in Europe still a youngster, for Italian club Ravenna Calcio. After one-and-a-half seasons he moved to Portuguese Primeira Liga side Vitória Futebol Clube: at Setúbal he won the Taça de Portugal in 2005, having scored the winning goal in the final against S.L. Benfica.
In the summer of 2005, Meyong signed a two-year contract with C.F. Os Belenenses – where he was the league's top goalscorer despite the club's bottom-four finish– moving to Levante UD a year later. Due to late payment of salary he was loaned to Albacete Balompié, after one appearance for Levante in 2007–08.
