Club career

Parsemain began his career at Club Franciscain in Martinique. For the 2006–07 season, Parsemain moved to France and signed for Le Mans FC's 'B' team after being scouted with Franciscan.[1] He would spend two and half season at the club.[2] In the winter transfer window of the 2008–09 season, he signed for the reserve team of Evian Thonon Gaillard F.C., then known as Olympique Croix de Savoie.[3] He made one appearance for the senior squad, playing the final 20 minutes in a 2–1 away win over Cherbourg.[4] Parsemain's time and appearances with Olympique Croix de Savoie were cut short by a recurring groin injury. At this time, he returned to Martinique and signed with RC Rivière-Pilote in 2009.[1]

In January 2014,[5] it was reported by Caribbean media that Parsemain had signed with Seattle Sounders FC of Major League Soccer.[6] It was later confirmed that Parsemain was in fact on trial with the club.[7] During his preseason trial, Parsemain scored two goals in his first 105 minutes of action against MLS opponents, including a "stunning volley" from the top of the penalty box. At that point in preseason, Parsemain was tied with Nigerian international Obafemi Martins as the team's leading scorer, making one of the strongest statements among unsigned players hopeful of earning a contract.[8] Parsemain was officially signed by the Sounders on 28 March 2014. However, only weeks after signing, he suffered a torn ACL and was expected to miss six to seven months and was not expected to appear during the 2014 Major League Soccer season.[9] Seattle waived Parsemain in March 2015.[10]

In August 2015, Parsemain joined five other French professional at Daring Club Motema Pembe of the Congolese Linafoot for the 2015/2016 season. He left in April 2016, stating in an interview that "You do not get paid on time, our security was not guaranteed.".[11]

In July 2016 he returned to Martinique, signing for Golden Lion.[12] In September 2017 an expected transfer to Sporting Kansas City was ruled out on a technicality.[13]

International career

Parsemain made his international debut in 2008.[2]

Honours
gollark: These are very phasic, I must say. Glad I used apionic induction to use this information!
gollark: The CSS is obviously the kind I write (trivially), it inconsistently uses fairly advanced new JS like template strings and destructuring and Uint8Arrays, it uses overly general operations like zip and cartesian product and map and insertDiagonalFrom, it also uses the exotic labelling feature, I doubt many people here know about WebWorkers or the ridiculous hack I came up with a while ago to do them without an actual external file, it does IO in such an ugly accursed way, and the AI is insane.
gollark: But it would have been funny, at least.
gollark: I decided not to because I knew it was you anyway and giving other people more information would be bad.
gollark: Wow, I really should have actually run the bruteforce thing.
