The following season, Bouka Moutou made six first-team league appearances and one appearance in the Coupe de la Ligue.[3] With the reserve side, he made five appearances.[3] The 2018–19 season saw a further reduction in first-team playing time for Bouka Moutou, as he made only three league appearances and two in the French Cup, while making another five appearances with the reserves.[3] He departed the club at the end of that season after his contract ran out.[6]
