[edit] Club career

[edit] France

Puygrenier began his career at Stade Rennais, Puygrenier made his Ligue 1 debut in the 4–1 defeat at Lyon in 2003. He started the next two matches, but these were to be his last games for the club before joining Nancy on loan for the 2003–04 season.

After playing 27 games in Ligue 2 that season, Puygrenier spent a further season on loan at Nancy, with 20 appearances as the club won promotion. League rules prevented him from staying on loan at a rival Ligue 1 club so he was signed permanently in 2005. Puygrenier scored his only league goal to date on 28 August in the 6–0 win over his old club. He also scored Nancy's opener in the 3-0 win over Feyenoord Rotterdam in the UEFA Cup. He was voted Fans' Player of the Year for 2006-07, and named in the Ligue 1 2007-08 team of the year the following season, where he helped Nancy stay unexpectedly in the top 3 for most of the season.

[edit] Zenit St. Petersburg

On 31 July 2008, he signed a four year contract with Zenit St. Petersburg. He took part in the team's victory in the 2008 UEFA Super Cup.

[edit] Loan to Bolton Wanderers

In January 2009, he joined Bolton Wanderers on loan for the rest of the season.[1] His first goal for Bolton came on 31 January, in a 3–2 home victory over Tottenham Hotspur. It was Bolton's 4000th goal in the top division of English football.[2]

[edit] Loan to A.S. Monaco

On July 14, 2009, Puygrenier agreed to a loan deal to A.S. Monaco in his native country[3].
