Romain Faivre - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Disappointing season in Brest Faivre appeared in 32 matches across all competitions for Brest during the 2024-25 season, scoring three goals and providing three assists.

Impact Faivre's technical skills and versatility allowed him to impact games from various attacking positions, but his overall season has been disappointing when looking at his talent and potential. His ability to create and finish chances added depth to Brest's offensive options on too few occasions since he started only half of his appearances and often showed a bad attitude and suffisance during games. He is now heading back to Bournemouth after his loan spell with Brest.

Assists off bench Faivre came off the bench to deliver an assist in Brest's 4-1 win over Nantes Sunday.

Impact Faivre was dealing with a hamstring issue but managed to get on the stat sheet late with an assist in stoppage time. The midfielder will likely remain among the substitutes when Brest plays La Roche in the French Cup Saturday.

Features on bench Faivre (hamstring) is on the bench for Sunday's match versus Nantes.

Impact Faivre missed the last two matches with a hamstring injury, having last played on Nov 30 against Rennes. He's seen two starts in the last seven league competitions, scoring and assisting once while totaling nine crosses (three accurate), four shots (three on target) and three chances created.

Not playing vs. Lille Faivre (hamstring) won't play Friday against Lille.

Impact Faivre was an injury concern due to a hamstring injury, according to manager Eric Roy, and it seems the midfielder didn't recover in time to be an option. This means his next chance to play will come against PSV Eindhoven on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League, though given the nature of hamstring injuries, that might be a stretch.

Added to injury list Faivre is questionable for Friday's match against Lille due to hamstring issues, according to manager Eric Roy.

Impact Faivre is a late call for Friday, with the midfielder's fitness likely depending on a late fitness test. If he passes, he will hope to see the start, as he did start in their last outing and has started in seven of his 14 appearances. However, with the recent injury and the midfielder being a rotational player either way, they may choose to keep him on the bench or preserve him and keep him out, then leaving Kamory Doumbia as a likely replacement.

DECEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

On team sheet Faivre (undisclosed) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Barcelona.

Impact Faivre has returned to play following a one-match absence, returning to a spot on the bench. He continues to see more of a rotational role, so he will still hope to earn some minutes off the bench Tuesday.

NOVEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Listed on squad list Faivre (undisclosed) is on the squad list for Tuesday's match against Barcelona.

Impact Faivre could get back on the field Tuesday, with the midfielder making the squad list after missing out Friday. Even if he is fit, he will likely only see a spot on the bench, as he has only started in six of his 12 matches, serving in more of a rotational role.

Impact Faivre will sit out the upcoming match, as he returns to the club following the international break needing some time on the sidelines. He did start in their last match, so this will force a change, with Romain Del Castillo likely taking his spot. He has no expected return date, so he will hope to only miss the one match.

NOVEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in 2-1 win Faivre scored one goal and assisted once from one shot and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Reims.

Impact Faivre had an impressive day as he scored the team's first goal which was his second in the league campaign. The 26-year-old also assisted in the team's second goal, which was his first assist in the league campaign. Faivre produced two crosses as well and both were accurate.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores off bench Faivre scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one corner in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Toulouse.

Impact Faivre notched his first goal since arriving at Brest on a loan. It occurred in the 91st minute as he beat the goalkeeper with a powerful near-post shot from short-range. The midfielder came off the bench in the second half, likely due to previously starting in a Champions League match just three days prior.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starts as sub Faivre (ankle) is an option off the bench for Sunday's match against Bournemouth.

Impact Faivre is back on the bench after missing last match with an ankle injury. He's only made two starts since Apr 13, with only five appearances since joining from Lorient.

MAY 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Targeting Sunday Faivre (ankle) is targeting a return during Sunday's trip to Chelsea, according to manager Andoni Iraola. "I can probably try with Romain, he was out with just the ankle and we wil...

Impact Faivre could be in with a chance of returning for the Premier League finale. The midfielder has barely played since coming back from loan, but still getting back on the pitch before the end of the season would be a good sign for his recovery.

MAY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up new ankle injury Favire picked up an ankle issue and missed Saturday's match against Brentford.

Impact Faivre is hopeful to return for the finale, but that isn't expected to mean much for the Cherries. He's played just 21 minutes in his last eight appearances for the club, which have been surrounded by injuries. Given how things have gone since returning from Lorient, it seems like Faivre will again go on loan next season.

MAY 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gets minimal time in return Faivre earned one minute of play in Saturday's 3-0 loss to Arsenal.

Impact Faivre wasn't given all that much time to test his legs in his return from a hamstring issue Saturday, as he didn't appear until the end of the match for one minute. He will likely finish out the season serving in a bench role, as he fell out of his starting spot halfway through the season, seeing zero starts since February and mainly going unused on the bench.

MAY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes squad for Arsenal match Faivre (hamstring) resides on the bench for Saturday's game versus Arsenal.

Impact Faivre is available after sitting out three matches due to a hamstring injury. He has had a minor role throughout the season.

MAY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Likely out rest of season Faivre is likely to miss the rest of the season after suffering a hamstring injury in training last week, according to manager Andoni Iraola.

Impact Faivre has managed just four appearances since returning to Bournemouth in January. It seems likely he'll head out on loan again next season unless something changes in the next few months. He was a regular at Lorient the first half of the season, starting 16 of 17 appearances, and could move back to Ligue 1 for the 2024/25 campaign.

APRIL 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back from illness Faivre (illness) returned from an illness and is available for Saturday's clash with Manchester City, according to manager Andoni Iraola.

Impact Faivre missed out against Newcastle United due to the illness but is now back available for Saturday's match. The midfielder hasn't played a large role since returning from loan but still he should provide a different threat in midfield if called upon against Manchester City.

FEBRUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out Saturday Faivre (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's clash with Newcastle United, according to manager Andoni Iraola.

Impact Faivre won't be an option Saturday due to an undisclosed issue. The midfielder has made two bench appearances since returning from loan, so he shouldn't change the starting XI too much. Faivre's first chance to return is a Feb. 24 clash with Manchester City.

FEBRUARY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from loan Faivre has had his loan deal with Lorient terminated and will return to Bournemouth, his parent club announced Wednesday.

Impact Faivre will return to England for the second half of the season, having been recalled from his loan in France with Lorient. The 25-year-old had been on loan with the Lorient since the midway point of last season, recording 34 appearances with them since then. 30 of those came as starts, while he also racked up 10 goals and four assists. With David Brooks recently transferring out of the club, Faivre seems to be his replacement after being recalled. In that case, he will most likely fill a rotational spot on the bench, getting time here and there, but he shouldn't be expected to be a regular starter.
