Club career
Rennes and Sedan
Born in Besançon, Lasimant began his career at local club SC Clémenceau. In 2002, he moved to the biggest club in the city, Besançon RC. He gained the attention of Rennes scouts during his time here and joined the Bretagne club's training center in 2006. He joined the club's under-18 side in 2007 and helped the club win the under-18 league championship. During the same season, he was selected to France's under-18 side. The following season, he was a part of the youth side that won the Coupe Gambardella.
At the start of the 2008–09 season, Lasimant played mainly in the reserves. He received his first call up to the senior squad by manager Guy Lacombe on 14 February 2009 in a league match against Nancy appearing on the bench in a 1–1 draw.[1] After appearing on the bench several times for the rest of the season, he finally made his debut on the final match day of the season in a 0–4 defeat to Marseille appearing as a substitute in the 72nd minute.[2]
He joined second division club Sedan on loan for the entire 2009–10 season, in order to receive some playing time.[3] In his competitive debut with Sedan, he scored the club's second goal in their 2–0 win over Caen in the Coupe de la Ligue.[4]
