Club career

Stricanne, 177 centimeter tall attacking midfielder , who was occasionally called up as a striker , began his career during World War II . Between 1941 and 1943 he wore the jersey of the Excelsior AC Roubaix . In the 1943/44 season he was part of a season in which club teams were not allowed to participate in league operations, the ÉF Lens-Artois , which consisted essentially of players from the RC Lens . With the team he won the unofficial championship title, even if he spent part of the season in the competition selection ÉF Grenoble Dauphiné . In 1944 he found a new employer at Lille OSC and was part of a team that made it to the national cup final in 1945 . Although Lille won the trophy, Stricanne was not called up, which does not benefit him from participating in the title.

In the summer of 1945 he moved to CO Roubaix-Tourcoing , which in the same year was one of the clubs that were involved in the resumption of regular play in the first division. So the then 25-year-old made his official first division debut and from then on played regularly for the northern French, but without having a permanent place. In 1948, his team finished the season as first in the table, making him national champions for the second time after the unofficial title in 1944. Immediately afterwards, the player, who also wore his glasses on the field, turned his back on the club and signed with league rivals Stade Français from the capital Paris. On November 1 In 1948 the next change when he became second division Le Havre AC went. At Le Havre he became the undisputed top performer and, with his teammates, achieved promotion to the top division in 1950. In the 1950/51 season he was part of a surprise team at the newcomers, which was able to take third place immediately after jumping into the elite class. He himself was particularly valued for his technical strengths and his overview of the game. In the following years, the results deteriorated continuously and Stricanne also lost his regular place during the 1953/54 season due to a knee injury. The team was relegated to the second division in 1954 and he ended his professional career in view of his injury at the age of 34 after 172 first division games with 26 goals and 51 second division games with 7 goals. In the amateur field, he worked from 1956 to 1980 as a coach at a club called CFR Le Havre .

National team

Stricanne was 31 years old when he made his debut for the French national team on November 1, 1951 in a 2-2 draw with Austria . The friendly game, in which he did not score, remained the only game he was allowed to play for his country.
