Diederrick Joel Tagueu Tadjo (born 6 December 1993), known as Joel Tagueu or simply Joel, is a Cameroonian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Brazilian club Paysandu.

Club career

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 (loan)

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.

Loan spells

On 19 January 2017, Joel signed a one-year loan contract with Botafogo.

On 20 June 2017, Joel signed a loan contract until the end of the year with Avaí.

On 8 January 2018, Joel was sent on a season-long loan to Portuguese Primeira Liga club Marítimo.

In June 2019 he suffered a heart problem.

In October 2019, Joel rejoined Cruzeiro and started to train with the team squad.

Marítimo

On 7 August 2020, Joel signed a two-year contract with Marítimo.

Al-Hazem

On 18 January 2023, Joel joined Saudi club Al-Hazem on loan.

Hanoi FC

On 11 September 2023, V.League 1 side Hanoi FC confirmed they had signed Joel for a reported transfer fee of €800,000. Joel made his debut for Hanoi in the AFC Champions League against Pohang Steelers on 20 September, where he scored a brace. On 29 October, he made his V.League 1 debut and scored a hat-trick against Haiphong FC.
