Londrina
Born in Nkongsamba, Joel moved to Brazil in September 2009, joining Iraty's youth setup. In March 2011 he moved to neighbouring Londrina (which also had the same owner, Sérgio Malucelli), and was promoted to the first-team in 2012, after impressing in the youth squads.
Joel made his first-team debut on 28 March 2012, coming on as a late substitute in a 0–1 away loss against Coritiba, for the Campeonato Paranaense championship. He scored his first goal four days later, netting his side's only in a 1–1 home draw against Toledo Colônia Work.
In the 2014 season, Joel played an important role in Londrina's Paranaense winning campaign, and also scored regularly for the side in Série D. On 31 July 2014 he scored a brace in a 2–1 home success against Santos, for the campaign's Copa do Brasil.
Coritiba
On 4 September 2014 Joel was loaned to Coritiba for the remainder of the season, being subsequently negotiated with a German unnamed team. He made his Série A debut three days later, again from the bench in a 0–0 away draw against Bahia.
Joel scored his first goal in the Brazilian top flight on 10 September, netting the last of a 3–0 home success against Chapecoense. Seven days later he scored a brace in a 3–1 home win against São Paulo, but fell into a hole into the locker room tunnel after going out to celebrate the last goal.
Cruzeiro
On 16 December 2014 Joel moved to fellow league team Cruzeiro, for a R$2.5 million fee. He made his debut for the club on 1 February of the following year, scoring the winner in an away success over Democrata-GV.
Joel was bought outright by Raposa in May 2015. However, he struggled with injuries during the campaign, and appeared in only 11 league matches, scoring one goal.
Santos (loan)
On 11 January 2016 Joel was loaned to fellow league team Santos, for one year. He made his debut for the club on 30 January, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 1–1 Campeonato Paulista home draw against São Bernardo.
On 25 February 2016, as Ricardo Oliveira was unavailable, Joel started and scored a brace in a 4–1 home routing of Mogi Mirim. However, he spent the rest of the year as a backup to the former.
Botafogo (loan)
On 19 January 2017, Joel signed a one-year loan contract with Botafogo.
Avaí (loan)
On 20 June 2017, Joel signed a loan contract until the end of the year with Avaí.
