Mobulu grew up in Lausanne.
Mobulu made his professional debut with Lausanne-Sport on 9 December 2007, in a game against Winterthur in Switzerland's second division Challenge League. He made 20 appearances for Lausanne in the 2009–10, scoring five goals, and spent six month on loan with Bulle of Switzerland's third-tier 1. Liga between January and June 2010.
Mobulu moved to Canada in the summer of 2010 to join the Vancouver Whitecaps,[2] initially as a member of the team's PDL affiliate Vancouver Whitecaps Residency. He made his full Whitecaps debut on 28 July, coming on as a second-half substitute for Blake Wagner during a 1–0 away win over Montreal Impact,[3] and scored his first Whitecaps goal during a 2–2 home draw versus Austin Aztex on 29 August.[4]
On 4 January 2019, Mobulu re-joined Yverdon-Sport FC.[5]
Mobulu played with the Swiss national U-15 team in 2005, but has since declared his intention to play for the Democratic Republic of the Congo should the opportunity arise. Though born and raised in Switzerland, Mobulu is a citizen of DR Congo through his parents, Ngia Jose Nzobo and Florent Kashama Mobulu.
