During the course of the season, Ebere scored seven goals including the third and final goal on the final match of the season in the 3-1 victory over Sunshine Queens.

She said at the time, "I am here to give the best of myself and to win trophies, I am very motivated by this new challenge that awaits me here in Paris. It’s a dream come true." She made her debut in a Division 1 Féminine match against Olympique Lyonnais on 27 September 2015. Two months later, she was placed on the five person shortlist for African Women's Footballer of the Year; she suggested that this nomination came as a result of her recent performances. During the course of her first season, she played in eight matches; six in the Division 1 Féminine and two in the Coupe de France Féminine.
