Will play for Gabon Bouanga was called up by Gabon for the upcoming international break between September and October.

Impact Bouanga scored a goal in the 2-2 draw against San Jose this past weekend, becoming the all-time regular-season scoring leader for LAFC, so he should join the Gabon NT with plenty of confidence. His absence will leave a huge void in the attack for the Black and Gold, as Heung-Min Son and Jacob Shaffelburg are also out on international duty. That means Jeremy Ebobisse could be in line to see more minutes in the Sept. 26 match against FC Dallas.

He registered one shot on goal, two inaccurate crosses and two corners across 86 minutes before being replaced as LAFC wanted to protect their lead with 10 men.
