Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox football biography Henri Grégoire Saivet (born 26 October 1990) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Template:French football updater club Clermont. Although initially a France youth international, he played for the Senegal national team from 2013 to 2019.

Saivet began his career with Bordeaux, making his debut aged 17, and spent nine years at the club before being signed by English club Newcastle United. He made few appearances for Newcastle and was loaned out to Saint-Étienne, and Turkish clubs Sivasspor and Bursaspor before leaving in 2021. After a year without a club, he signed for Pau. In 2024, after two seasons with Pau, he joined Clermont.

Club career

Bordeaux

In 2007, Saivet signed his first professional contract with Bordeaux, thus making him the youngest professional player in the history of the club.[1] He subsequently made his professional debut during the 2007–08 season, at the age of 17, in a league match against Lens. Saivet scored a goal in the final of the 2013 Coupe de France to help Bordeaux defeat Evian 3–2.[2]

Newcastle United

On 11 January 2016, Bordeaux manager Willy Sagnol confirmed that he gave Saivet permission to leave the club.[3] Later that day Saivet officially signed a five-and-a-half-year contract with Newcastle United, joining for a reported fee of £5 million.[4][5]

After playing just four matches starting twice in half a season with Newcastle United, Saivet joined Saint-Étienne on a season-long loan on 23 August 2016 without a purchase option given to Saint-Étienne.[6][7]

On 23 August 2017, Saivet played his first game for Newcastle since 6 February 2016, starting an EFL Cup tie against Nottingham Forest.[8] He was recalled to the first team on 23 December and scored a free kick in a 3–2 Premier League win against West Ham.[9]

On 25 August 2018, it was announced that Saivet would join Turkish club Bursaspor on loan for the season.[10]

Later career

In June 2022, Saivet joined French club Pau.[11] After two seasons with the club, he signed for Clermont on a two-year contract on 13 June 2024.[12]

International career

He made his debut for Senegal on 14 August 2013.[13]
