After a short time with the Reinickendorfer Füchsen , Ngankam was accepted into the youth department of Hertha BSC at the age of six . He later worked for the club in both the B and A junior Bundesliga . He led the U17s as team captain in his final year and was an integral part of the U19s from summer 2017.

In the summer of 2019, the Cameroonian-born German moved up to the second men's team . Until the season break ordered due to the COVID-19 pandemic , Ngankam had completed 22 of 24 regional league games and became the team's best scorer with 11 goals and assists each. On the 26th matchday in mid-May 2020 he was under the new head coach Bruno Labbadia for the first time in the Bundesliga and was substituted on in the 3-0 away win against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in the final phase. A few days later, Ngankam's contract in Berlin was extended to June 2023.
