Career

After being released from French top flight club Nantes, Charpentier decided to seek a move abroad because he thought "that in France, the path is a little more difficult to get there. Football is not easy".[1]

For the 2019 season, he signed for FK Spartaks Jūrmala in Latvia, despite being "really apprehensive at the start".[1] Later that season, another French player joined the team, which boosted his confidence and motivation.[1]

In 2020, Charpentier signed for Genoa in the Italian Serie A, before being loaned to Reggina 1914 in the second division.[2][3]

On 1 February 2021, Charpentier moved to Serie B side Ascoli, on a loan deal until the end of the season.[4]

On 28 July 2021 he went to Frosinone on loan.[5] In Frosinone the French player had a great season.

On 30 August 2022, Charpentier signed with Parma.[6]

International career

Charpentier was born in the Republic of the Congo to a French father and Congolese mother. He made himself available to play for the Congo national team in June 2022.[7] He debuted for the Congo in a 2–1 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualification loss to South Sudan on 23 March 2023.[8]
