Florian Raspentino (born June 6, 1989 in Marignane ) is a French football player .

Club career

In the youth (until 2008)

Raspentino was born in 1989 as the son of a French woman and an Algerian, grew up in the vicinity of the southern French metropolis of Marseille and began playing football in 1996 at a club from Vitrolles . In 2001 he moved to the youth department of an amateur club from Gignac-la-Nerthe . He showed great talent, caught the attention of those in charge of AC Ajaccio and in 2006 was accepted into the youth division of the second division. However, he only stayed there for six months before returning to Gignac.

Fourth division (2008-2011)

At the beginning of the 2008/09 season, the offensive player succeeded in changing from Gignac to fourth division US Marignane , where he was immediately included in the first team. He was able to assert himself and was a regular player until he went to the fourth- rate RCO Agde in 2010 . The 2010/11 season in Agde went particularly well, Raspentino scored fifteen times in 33 league games and aroused the interest of higher-class clubs. In June 2011, the then 22-year-old signed a one -year contract with second division club FC Nantes and made the leap into professional football.

Career as a professional (from 2011)

Although he had never been a permanent member of the youth department of a professional club, Raspentino made his second division debut in the Nantes shirt on August 22, 2011 in a 4-0 win against EA Guingamp , where he was on the pitch from the start and in the 69th Minute to 3-0 met. In the further course of the season he hardly missed a game and was mostly part of the starting XI. This aroused the interest of other clubs who were able to sign him for free in the summer of 2012 due to his short contract term. Ultimately, he signed with Olympique Marseille and thus managed personal promotion to the highest national league. He made his first division debut when he was substituted on August 19, 2012 in a 2-0 win against FC Sochaux just before the end of the game. Four days later he played for the first time in the Europa League , in which he came on in the 62nd minute for Mathieu Valbuena . In the following time he had to be content with a reservist role, although he was allowed to play regularly in European competition. Overall, however, he received so little game practice that in January 2013 the decision was made to loan him to first division rivals Stade Brest .

Raspentino in the Brest jersey

In the Brest jersey, he immediately fought for a regular place, but at the end of the season could not avert the threatened relegation. He was due to return to Marseille in June 2013, but those in charge decided to loan him to SC Bastia for the 2013/14 season . In Bastia on the island of Corsica , things did not go as well as before in Brest, as he was initially only a substitute and injured shortly after moving up to the starting eleven. Despite everything, he regularly gained match practice and finished tenth in the table with Bastia.

His return to Marseille was due for the 2014/15 season, but instead he switched to newly promoted SM Caen , who took him over for a transfer fee of 500,000 euros. In the following time he was regularly called up without being a permanent part of the first team. In January 2015 he left Caen for the time being because he was awarded to the second division FCO Dijon . The following summer he initially returned to Caen, but was handed over to first division rivals SC Bastia from the island of Corsica shortly before the end of the transfer period on August 31, 2015 . With this he came initially to playing times, but then missed the entire second half of the 2015/16 season. After the 2016/17 season his contract ended and he was without a club for almost half a year. In December 2017, the Belgian first division club KAS Eupen announced the signing of Raspentino. But for the next season he joined the Valenciennes FC in Ligue 2 . Here he scored 11 goals in 28 league games and moved on to Grenoble Foot in summer 2019 .

National team

Thanks to his father's Algerian origins, Raspentino is eligible to play alongside the French for the Algerian national team. The player had agreed early on to be on the international field for the selection of the North African country. National coach Vahid Halilhodžić observed him in March 2012 as part of a second division match and then made the statement that the striker did not yet meet the criteria for a nomination. Halilhodžić remained with this attitude until his resignation in 2014.
