Career

Troyes

On 31 August 2018, the last day of the 2018 summer transfer window, Fortuné joined Ligue 1 side Troyes AC from Ligue 2 club RC Lens signing a three-year contract.[2]

Tractor FC

On 22 August 2019, Fortuné joined Tractor S.C. after an undisclosed fee was agreed between Troyes AC and the Iranian club.

Media reports indicate that there was a high transfer fee involved and considering Fortuné’s annual income the deal was unprecedented in Iranian football and Fortuné becomes one of the highest earning players in the Persian Gulf Pro League.

International career

Fortuné was born in Paris, France but originated from the department of Martinique.[3] Fortuné made his debut for the Martinique national football team in a 1-0 2019–20 CONCACAF Nations League qualifying win over Puerto Rico on 13 October 2018.[4] On 7 June 2019, he was named to Martinique's squad for the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[5]
