Club career

Lilepo came up from the youth ranks of AS Vita Club but never made it into the first team or saw any Linafoot playing time.[1] In late 2018 he was invited to trials at Zamalek SC of the Egyptian Premier League.[2] In January 2019, after a two-month wait for the paperwork to be finalized, he was loaned to Mbabane Swallows for the 2018–19 Eswatini Premier League season.[3][4] Halfway through the 2019–20 Linafoot season, Lilepo joined FC Renaissance du Congo. He made an immediate impact scoring four goals in his first seven matches with the club.[1] By 2021 Lilepo had returned to AS Vita and appeared for the club in the 2020–21 CAF Champions League.[5]

Lilepo made his senior international debut on 17 January 2021 in a 2020 African Nations Championship match against the Congo. Thirteen days later he scored his first senior international goal against Cameroon in a quarter-final match of the same tournament.[6]
