Beauguel played for Toulouse in France. Although he didn't play in any league matches, he scored in a Coupe de la Ligue match against Nice on 31 August 2011. He later headed to the Netherlands, where he played for RKC Waalwijk, but left after the club was relegated from the Eredivisie at the end of the 2013–14 season.
Beauguel trialled with Czech club Dukla Prague in July 2014, scoring four goals in a half-hour section of a friendly match in a pre-season friendly versus Varnsdorf. A week later he signed a three-year contract with Dukla. Beauguel scored seven goals in the first half of the 2014–15 Czech First League. Having scored nine goals in 61 games for Dukla over the course of two and a half seasons, Beauguel signed for First League side Fastav Zlín in January 2017.
In November 2018, with his Zlín contract due to expire in less than two months, he signed a pre-contract agreement with Viktoria Plzeň. On 8 December, he did not appear for Zlín in their Czech First League match against Plzeň, having asked Zlín coach Michal Bílek not to select him for the match. This stirred controversy in the media, with news outlet iSport reporting that Viktoria Plzeň allegedly pressured the player to skip the match. Zlín lost the match 2–0.
On 17 June 2022, Beauguel joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Wehda.
On 24 February 2024, Beauguel signed with Chinese Super League club Qingdao West Coast.
Born in France, Beauguel is of Chadian descent through his father.
