Early career

On 18 December 2019, Mwepu extended his contract with Salzburg until summer 2024.

Brighton & Hove Albion

On 6 July 2021, he joined Premier League team Brighton & Hove Albion on a four-year contract, for an undisclosed fee. He scored in a 3–1 pre-season friendly win at Luton Town on 31 July. He made his competitive Albion debut on 14 August in the opening game of the 2021–22 season away at Burnley where he was replaced by Adam Lallana at half time of the eventual 2–1 victory at Turf Moor. He made his home debut on 21 August coming on as a substitute in the 2–0 victory over Watford in the second game of the season. On 24 August, Mwepu assisted Jakub Moder's first Albion goal in the second round EFL Cup away fixture at Cardiff City where Albion won 2–0.
