Sometimes falling down is the best way to learn how to get back up. Stade Brestois forward Rémy Labeau Lascary (22) knows this better than most. At just 22 years old, the young forward already understands the cruelty of falling, but also the beauty of getting back up. In the winter of 2024, what marked his “fall” was a torn cruciate ligament in his left knee.
“It was hard to deal with because it happened at a time when I was playing well Goal. It’s not easy to get injured when I’m running so well.“ Rabo Laskari told Get French football news. At the time, the striker was playing for Lens, the club where he grew up.

Last season, he successfully returned on loan from the French Ligue 1 Stade Lavalois and became an important member of Will Steele’s team. Everything changed in mid-December after a trip to AJ Auxerre that marked one of the first major turning points in his early career. But for the Guadeloupean, the experience finally put his situation in perspective.
“There are always worse things in life. I was in the hospital and saw people who couldn’t walk anymore. This helps me see the positive side” he explained.“I think God made me realize Fortunately I am in good health. It has become a source of strength to be able to start doing things again What do I like. Going through this has made me stronger.“
Labeau Lascary admits he sometimes “scared” Relapse is a possibility, especially given the experiences of some of his peers. That’s why he enjoys being back on the court even more.
Now, on loan at Stade Brestois from Lens, he is rediscovering the feeling he had been deprived of for months. “Back on the pitch, scoring goals and playing football Game after game is a very positive thing. I’m very happy,“ he said. “The criterion for evaluating forwards isHis statistics and scoring always make people feel good mentally and physically.“

Rabo Laskari has scored five goals so far this season, including one against his hometown club’s arch-rivals Lille. But the goalscorer didn’t want any personal glory for the achievement. “The goal was good. I’m in a beautiful stadium in the north, but To me, there is no difference. This is a goal that helps the team, and that’s the most important thing,“ he insisted.
“I think we need two or three more wins to stay ahead. We will focus on that and then See what happens.“ Rabo Lascari could and should have a fight for survival under the banner of another French Ligue 1 club. To be more precise, Angers has confirmed his loan move from RC Lens. Or rather, it seemed to be. At least until French football’s financial regulator DNCG declared the contract signed by Rabo Lascari invalid on August 29.
What’s the reason? The SCO is unable to comply with the “wage and transfer compensation framework” imposed by financial authorities. “I signed with Angers and it took a week Everything goes well there. It’s just that my contract was not approved by the company DNCG,“ he explained, reflecting on his hasty trip to Brest.
“When I got the news, there were only 24 hours left before the transfer window closed.” added the Frenchman. “Brest had already contacted me before I signed Angry, so it all happened very quickly.“

In his opinion, this is no coincidence. “I’m a very religious person. It’s driven by By the grace of God I ended up here. I immediately felt very comfortable with how I felt teammates and staff,” he said happily.
“I’m surrounded by good people. I have my family and my girlfriend. I also suffered Seriously injured. I have to keep things in perspective. Just being able to play football again would be amazing. Unbelievable to me.“
Although Labeau Lascari is now thriving in his adventures in Brittany, he has not forgotten Lens, whose exploits he follows closely: “I came up through their ranks and I’ve been through Everything there. I’m very pleased with what they have achieved.“ The promising striker is contracted to Les Sang et Or until 2028 and is not yet looking ahead to next season.
“I give my best in training and games and we’ll see what happens at the end of the game That year,“ He has a bad temper. But it is difficult to imagine that the prospect of playing in the Champions League with his old club, a team that is likely to qualify for the 2026-27 season, was not in his mind.
