Laurent Depoitre (born 7 December 1988) is a Belgian footballer who plays for Gent and the Belgian national team.

Club career

Eendracht Aalst

When a large number of players had to leave Péruwelz after the 2008-2009-season, Eendracht Aalst took advantage of the situation in the summer of 2009 and signed Depoitre alongside Damien Galucci and Olivier De Castro.[1] Depoitre formed a good pair in Alost with Wouter Moreels, and he was chosen as the best player of the team after his first season. 2011, the team became champion in Third Division A. In the 2011/12 season Depoitre was followed by, among other clubs, AA Gent, Lierse SK, Oud-Heverlee Leuven, Beerschot AC, N.E.C., Heerenveen, Willem II and Roda JC.[2]

Oostende

In 2012, Depoitre joined Oostende from Aalst.[2][3]

In January 2013, it was announced that he would be transferred to Zulte Waregem in 2013–2014. Afterwards, his transfer turned out to be a part of a share transaction between Yves Lejaeghere, the then-president of Ostend, and Patrick Decuyper, the then-general manager of Zulte Waregem.[4] In the end the transaction was cancelled and as a result the transfer was also revoked.

Gent

After Depoitre decided not to extend his contract with Oostende, it was announced that he would play for KAA Gent during the 2014–2015 season.[3]

International career

On 10 October 2015, he made his senior debut for the national team in a 4–1 win in a UEFA Euro 2016 qualification match against Andorra. Depoitre scored his team's fourth goal.[5]
