Louis Mouton (born 3 June 2002) is a French professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Ligue 2 club Pau FC, on loan from Saint-Étienne.

Career

Originally a youth player at ES Veauche, Mouton joined Saint-Étienne's academy in 2013. During the 2021–22 season, he was an integral member of the club's reserve team in the Championnat National 3.[2][3] On 17 June 2022, Mouton signed his first professional contract with Saint-Étienne, a one-year deal.[4][5] He made his professional debut as a substitute in a 2–1 Ligue 2 defeat away to Dijon on 30 July.[6][7] On 20 August, Mouton made his first start for Saint-Étienne in an eventual 6–0 home defeat to Le Havre.[8][9] He scored his first professional goal in a 2–2 draw away to Pau on 5 September.[10]

In the subsequent season, Mouton was loaned to Pau in Ligue 2, to further develop his skills and establish himself. He quickly made an impact, contributing to plays and opportunities in his matches, indicating a promising start to his loan spell.[11] This move was fueled by his desire to demonstrate his capabilities and talents. His transition to Pau was facilitated by Victor Lobry's endorsement, and Mouton is determined to make the most of this opportunity, drawing on his conviction and resilience.[11]

Personal life

Louis's younger brother Jules, born in 2005, has also been a Saint-Étienne youth player.[12]
