Benogo played football in Ivory Coast for Club Omnisports de Korhogo,[2] then moved to Ghana, where he played in the Ghana Premier League for International Allies FC from the 2013–14 season.[3] Benogo scored the winning goal for Inter Allies in a 1–0 win against Aduana Stars, which would help the club retain the league title with a game left.[4] He would become an first-team player after his positive performances, playing in 21 matches for the club, where he would score 3 goals.[4][5]

Loan to Spartak Trnava

edit

In 2015, Benogo joined Slovak club FC Spartak Trnava on a loan deal with an option of a two year contract.[5][6][7] The club decided to sign him after the player's agent Juraj Vengloš, brought him to the club’s attention. Benogo would start training with the A-team, and following good performances, would stay at the club after impressing main coach Ivan Hucko.[8]

He made his professional debut for Spartak Trnava against AS Trenčín on 13 September 2015.[9] Coming on off the bench in the 63rd minute for Aldo Baéz, Benogo would be involved in the second goal scored by David Depetris. The match ended in a 5–3 loss.[10] His first start came a few weeks later, playing 68 minutes of a 2–0 win against DAC Dunajska Streda.[11] In the following match he played the full 90 minutes in a 2–1 victory over MFK Ružomberok.[12] After a total of six matches played, Benogo and the club would agree to terminate his contract.[13][14] He left the club together with 5 other players.[15][16]
