Early career
Allevinah developed through local club Entente Boé-Bon-Encontre, playing mostly there until the age of 19, besides a brief spell in the youth ranks at Stade Montois.[2] It was with this club that he made his senior debut in the eighth tier of French football, the Division d'Honneur Régionale, also playing for them in the ninth tier, the Promotion Honneur, before joining sixth tier side SU Agen in December 2014.[3] His performances there drew the attention of CFA 2 (fourth tier) side Marmande, who he joined in June 2015.[4] Good performances there drew attention from professional clubs Dijon and Bordeaux, who gave him a trial,[5][6] though neither side ended up offering Allevniah a contract.[7]
At the end of the 2015–16 season, he signed a contract with newly relegated CFA 2 side Bayonne.[8] Following a strong season in the league, Ligue 2 side Nîmes Olympique offered him a trial,[9] but he didn't end up signing with the club,[7] instead remaining with Bayonne for another season, at the conclusion of which he moved to fellow CFA 2 side Le Puy, signing a two-year contract.[10] Allevinah helped Le Puy gain promotion to the Championnat National,[11] and his success with the side prompted Ligue 2 side Clermont Foot to sign him on a three-year contract for a fee of around €25,000.[12][13]
Clermont Foot
Allevinah made his professional debut with Clermont Foot on the first match day of the 2019–20 season, in a match against Châteauroux, coming on as a substitute for Jason Berthomier in the 68th minute and winning a penalty, which was then converted by Adrian Grbic to complete a 3–0 victory for Clermont Foot.[14]
Angers
On 27 May 2024, it was announced that Allevinah had signed a three-year contract with newly promoted Ligue 1 club Angers.[15]

International career
Born in France, Allevinah elected to represent Gabon at the senior international level. He made his international debut on 23 March 2019 against Burundi, starting and playing the full 90 minutes of the 1–1 draw, which eliminated Gabon from Africa Cup of Nations qualification.[16][17]
On 5 September 2021, he scored his first goal in a 1–1 draw against Egypt in a FIFA World Cup qualifier.[18][19] Two months later, he scored against Egypt again in the reverse fixture, which Egypt won 2–1.[20]
Allevinah was selected for Gabon's 2021 Africa Cup of Nations squad.[21] He played in all three of Gabon's group stage matches, scoring a late equalizer against Ghana[22] and the opening goal of the draw against Morocco to help Gabon advance to the knockout stage,[23] being eliminated via penalty shootout in the quarter finals by Burkina Faso.
