Club career
After joining the youth academy of Montpellier HSC, Beusnard was not retained due to his late physical development. Beusnard then began his career in the Regional Leagues, playing for several clubs in the Montpellier area. As an amateur, Beusnard worked in the construction industry, specifically in carpentry.
AS Béziers
Beusnard joined Béziers when they won promotion to Ligue 2 in the 2017–18 season.[1] Beusnard made his professional debut during the 2018-19 season with Béziers, in a 2-0 victory against AS Nancy in Ligue 2 on 27 July 2018.[2] Beusnard went on to play 29 Ligue 2 matches under the management of Mathieu Chabert.[citation needed]
Beusnard quickly became a fan favorite at the Parc des Sports de Sauclières.[citation needed]
However, the club was relegated at the end of the 2018–19 Ligue 2 season.[citation needed]
Gazélec Ajaccio
In July 2019, Beusnard left Béziers and signed with Gazélec Ajaccio.[3]
In December 2019, due to injuries and personal issues, he mutually agreed to terminate his contract with Gazélec Ajaccio and subsequently joined Pau FC.[4]
Pau FC
With Pau FC, he helped the team finish at the top of the 2019–20 Championnat National, earning promotion to Ligue 2. Unfortunately, Beusnard suffered a serious injury after hitting the post during a top-of-the-table match against USL Dunkerque (2-0).[citation needed]
During the 2020–21 Ligue 2 season, which marked the club's first-ever professional campaign, Beusnard initially struggled, as did his teammates.[5] However, the second half of the season was much stronger, and the club managed to secure a miraculous survival.[6]
The following season, the versatile midfielder solidified his role as a defensive midfielder, a position where Didier Tholot had repositioned him. In October 2021, Beusnard suffered another injury, tearing the ligaments in his right knee, following a similar injury to his left knee in February 2020. His recovery was further complicated by a staph infection.[7]
In June 2022, Beusnard extended his contract for another two years, despite his serious injury.[8]
During the 2022–23 Ligue 2 season, Beusnard established himself as a key player in Didier Tholot's midfield, alongside Henri Saivet and Sessi d'Almeida. The defensive midfielder managed to regain exceptional physical condition, playing in numerous matches with significant playing time.[9] Despite a slight dip in performance in January, he was one of the standout players of the 2022–23 season, alongside Henri Saivet.[citation needed]
Personal life
Steeve Beusnard has a twin brother, Brayan, with whom he played at Fabrègues and Lattes.[citation needed]
