Larsen Touré

A Guinean footballer Larsen Touré is a striker, born on 7 July 1984 in Brest.

It’s at Lille, where Larsen started out playing football. He was a highly-rated teenager in youth team, who impressed the surrounding players with his power and accuracy.

The footballer’s success earned him his first professional contract with Lille. A five-year contract was penned in 2005. Immediately after joining the team, he was sent on loan to Gueugnon, where he took his place in the starting line-up. He gained priceless performing experience, managing a fabulous season with 5 scored goals. The following season wasn’t as fortunate as the previous one. The striker made only occasional appearances as a starter, having spent the majority of time with the reserves. But the head coach never forgot about Larsen and gave him every chance to show his brilliance.

Clearly unhappy with his role there, he was lucky to get an offer from Brest, which had recently been promoted to the top division. A long-term contract was penned in 2010. The footballer understood that he would have to struggle for the place in the starting eleven. From 2010 Larsen featured in 52 matches of the club and netted 7 goals.

In 2013 the Guinean completed a move to Levski Sofia. In 2014 he switched for Arles.

He is a Guinean international since 2008.
