Club career edit

Dunkerque edit

Maçon was born in Baie-Mahault on Guadeloupe, and began his senior career with Dunkerque in the Championnat National. In the 2019–20 season, he made his breakthrough and was part of the team winning promotion to the Ligue 2.[2]

Saint-Étienne edit

On 31 January 2020, Maçon signed a professional contract with Saint-Étienne.[3] He made his professional debut for the club in a 1–0 Ligue 1 loss to Montpellier on 9 February 2020.[4]

Maçon began making an impact at the start of the 2020–21 season, particularly on 27 September 2020 against Marseille, providing the assist for the first goal and impressing with his defensive efforts,[5] in what was Saint-Étienne's first victory in Marseille since 1979.[6] On 20 September, the week prior, Maçon had scored his first goal for Saint-Étienne against Nantes in a 2–2 draw.[7] He suffered a posterior cruciate ligament injury on 12 October in a match against Slovakia for France U21, which effectively ruled him out for the remainder of the season.[8]

Maçon returned to action on the first matchday of the 2021–22 season, starting at right-back in a 1–1 draw against Lorient.[9][10]

He made his debut for the France U21 team on 8 October 2020 against Liechtenstein.[14]
