Roman Faivre is a 22-year-old French attacking midfielder.
Faivre, who was born in Asnières in the northern suburbs of Paris and attended the Tours junior program, went to Monaco in 2017 but only made a handful of Ligue 1 Uber Eats outings.
In the summer of 2019, Stade Brestois 29 attempted to recruit him, but AS Monaco intended to move him to their satellite club Cercle Bruges.
The teenage midfielder turned down the transfer to Belgium and spent another year with the reserves in the National 2 before being approached again by Brest.
He made his France U21 debut in October, scoring (and missing a penalty) against Liechtenstein. He is known for his ball control, constant dribbling, and three goals in 10 games (5-1).
He was returned by Sylvain Ripoll in November after proving his worth, and he once again found the net (one goal against Liechtenstein, 5-0).
This recent national-team call-up came at an ideal time for the midfielder, who had just defeated LOSC in Ligue 1 Uber Eats, playing a major part in spoiling Les Dogues’ undefeated start to the season only days after defeating AC Milan in the Europa League.
