Auxerre bolster their attack with the signing of Rémy Labeau-Lascary. The 23-year-old Guadeloupean striker leaves RC Lens after 27 Ligue 1 appearances and 5 goals in the 2025-2026 season to join Auxerre on a four-year deal.
Who is Rémy Labeau-Lascary?
Developed at Lens, Labeau-Lascary spent last season on loan at Brest before returning to the Pas-de-Calais club. His 5 goals in 27 Ligue 1 games came despite a tough campaign for his team, which finished 16th with 24 points from 5 wins, 9 draws and 15 defeats in 29 matches. The versatile forward’s arrival gives Auxerre a fresh option up front after Lassine Sinayoko’s move to Paris FC.
Why is this transfer strategic for Auxerre?
The Burgundy side is rebuilding after a difficult season. With 23 goals conceded and a -14 goal difference, defense was a weak spot. Labeau-Lascary, capable of playing as a lone striker or second striker, replaces Sinayoko, who scored 8 goals last term. Auxerre, 16th in the final 2025 standings, must improve to avoid another relegation scrap. Their next fixture is away to Lorient on 2 January 2027, as the club gears up for a high-pressure start to 2026-2027.
What’s next for Labeau-Lascary?
The four-year contract ties him to Auxerre until 2030. He joins a side in transition, where his Ligue 1 experience will be vital. With Auxerre 39 points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain, quick adaptation is key to avoid another rocky start. His first training session with the new club is expected in the coming days ahead of the August 2026 league restart.
Auxerre finished 16th in the final 2025 table with 24 points from 5 wins, 9 draws and 15 defeats in 29 games. The 2026-2027 season is make-or-break for the Burgundy club, which will rely on new signings like Labeau-Lascary to steer clear of trouble.
