Paul-Georges Ntep de Madiba (born 29 July 1992) is a Cameroon-born French professional footballer who plays for Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg. He plays as a forward and is known for his quick pace and technical skill.
Ntep was born in Douala, the largest city in Cameroon. He moved to France at the age of eight to live with his aunt who was situated in the commune of Grigny in southern Paris. He began his career at US Ris Orangis and spent two years at the club. During his stint with Ris Orangis, he embarked on several trials with professional clubs, which included Auxerre, however, he was not signed. In 2005, Ntep joined the under-14 team of Viry-Châtillon and, after a year's stint with another amateur club (ESA Linas-Montlhery), signed with CS Brétigny Foot; a club that trained French internationals Patrice Evra and Jimmy Briand. While training at Brétigny, Ntep impressed club coaches and officials and, in 2009, was offered a three-day trial with professional club Auxerre, with whom Brétigny share a partnership. After a successful trial, he was signed to an stagiaire (internship) contract.
Ntep began the 2009–10 season training with the club's under-18 team. Midway through the season, he joined the club's reserve team in the Championnat de France amateur. Ntep appeared in 14 matches for the team scoring two goals. For the 2010–11 season, he began training with the senior team. Ntep was also named to the team's roster to appear in the UEFA Champions League. On 16 October 2010, he made the bench in the team's 1–0 defeat to Bordeaux. A week later, Ntep made his professional debut in a Coupe de la Ligue match against Bastia appearing as a substitute in the 31st minute for Dennis Oliech. Auxerre won the match 4–0.
