Lorient won 2–1, their first ever away win at Monaco.[5] In January 2016, Lavigne joined Ligue 2 side Stade Lavallois on loan for the remainder of the 2015–16 season.[6] He went on to play eight league matches for the club. For the 2016–2017 season, he was again loaned out, this time to Brest.[7] He was loaned out again for the 2017–18 season, to Paris FC.[8]
