Early life
Club career
Vincensini began his senior career with Bastia.[2] He made his senior debut for the club in a Ligue 2 match in May 2012 against Istres.[2][3] He signed his first professional contract in 2013.[3] After the side won promotion in 2013 to the top tier, he continued to serve as the backup keeper and made his Ligue 1 debut in 2015 as a substitute in a 1-1 draw against FC Lorient.[2] He made his first Ligue 1 start the next year, keeping a clean sheet against Stade Reims.[2] After the 2016-2017 season, Bastia was administratively relegated to the fifth tier Championnat National 3 and the club lost its professional status, resulting in his contract being automatically terminated.[4] He then went on trial with Stade Brestois.[5]
He played with Bastia-Borgo during the 2017-18 season.[6]
In June 2018, he signed with Ligue 2 side Valenciennes.[7]
In June 2019, he signed with Ligue 2 club Lens.[8]
In June 2020, he was loaned to his former club Bastia, now in the third tier Championnat National.[9] In June 2021, he joined Bastia on a permanent contract, who were now in Ligue 2.[10][11] On 12 July 2022, Vincensini's contract with Bastia was terminated by mutual consent.[12]
In July 2022, he moved to Virton in Belgium.[13] He began the season as the starting keeper.[14] He also spent some time serving as team captain.[15] After a poor match in March 2023 against Deinze,[16] he was dropped from the matchday squad for the following match, attributed to his poor reaction upon the backup keeper being named the starter.[17][18] He departed the club at the end of the season.
In February 2024, he signed with Canadian Premier League club York United FC.[19][20] He was twice named the league's Goalkeeper of the Month in June and August 2024.[21][22] At the end of the 2024 season, he was nominated for the league's Goalkeeper of the Year award.[23][24]
International career
He played with the non-affiliated Corsica football team, representing the Corsica region of France, in a friendly against Spanish regional team Basque Country on 27 May 2016.[citation needed] He was later selected to the squad for the 2018 Tournoi des 4.[citation needed]
