Career

Laurant joined Le Havre AC in July 2005 and played for their b side. He came to prominence in that year's UEFA–CAF Meridian Cup held in Turkey , where he played alongside the likes of Hatem Ben Arfa and Karim Benzema. After another spell as a reserve, he was loaned out in the 2008-9 season to Amiens, where he made 15 appearances without scoring.

It was announced on 12 October that he would be playing for Plymouth Argyle reserves against Exeter City[1] however this did not transpire as he was injured in the warm up and after the game Argyle manager Peter Reid said “Apparently he’s hurt his thigh muscle, so I won’t be pursuing that one if he’s not fit he’s no good to me”.[2]

On 13 January 2011, Laurant signed a 2+1⁄2-year deal with Kilmarnock in Scotland. He later trialed in Belgium.[3]
