Fiston Kalala Mayele (born 24 June 1994), is a Congolese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Egyptian Premier League club Pyramids FC and the DR Congo national team.

Mayele started his career at AS Vita Club in the Congolese Linafoot league. In the 2020–21 season, he finished as runner-up on the Linafoot top scorers list. On August 1, 2021, he signed a two-year deal with Tanzanian club Young Africans.

He quickly became a fan favorite at Young Africans after scoring the decisive goal in his debut match—a Charity Shield clash against arch-rivals Simba SC—played in front of a full-capacity crowd of 60,000 at Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium.

During his time with Young Africans, Mayele delivered outstanding performances, scoring 12 goals in seven matches at one point, including a run of seven goals in six games.

In 2023, he joined Egyptian side Pyramids. On 30 August 2024, he scored the only goal in a 1–0 victory over ZED in the Egypt Cup final, securing his club's maiden title in all competitions. In the 2025 CAF Champions League final, Mayele made history by scoring the opening goal against Mamelodi Sundowns in the second leg of a 2–1 win, helping his team clinch their first-ever continental title with a 3–2 aggregate victory. He finished the tournament as the top scorer, netting six goals.

On 23 September 2025, he netted a hat-trick for Pyramids in a 3–1 win over Al-Ahli, securing his club's African–Asian–Pacific Cup title. A month later, on 18 October, he scored the only goal in a 1–0 win over RS Berkane in the CAF Super Cup.

In December 2022, Mayele was named in the DR Congo squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
