Club career edit
Boyer started his career with Jura Sud, where he made 19 league appearances during the 2010–11 season. In the summer of 2011, he joined the Rennes' reserve team and played 20 matches in the CFA 2, before moving to Angers ahead of the 2012–13 campaign. He made his professional debut in the 1–0 win over Sedan on 27 July 2012.
On 17 July 2018, Boyer suffered a cruciate ligament rupture in a pre-season friendly for Grenoble against Annecy, which restricted him to playing only one match for the rest of the season.
After being without a club for almost a year, Boyer signed for Annecy on 12 June 2020, who had recently been promoted to the Championnat National, the third division of France.[3] His contract was terminated in February 2021, without playing a game for Annecy.[4] Later in the same month, Boyer moved to the Réunion Island and joined AS Excelsior. He played there for a few months, before joining fellow league club JS Saint-Pierroise in the beginning of 2022.[5][6]
International career edit
Boyer was born in France and is Malagasy by descent.[7] He made his debut for the Madagascar national team in a 1–1 friendly tie with Comoros on 11 November 2017.[8]
