Career
After being released from French top flight club Nantes, Charpentier decided to seek a move abroad because he thought "that in France, the path is a little more difficult to get there. Football is not easy".[1]
For the 2019 season, he signed for Spartaks Jūrmala in Latvia, despite being "really apprehensive at the start".[1] Later that season, another French player joined the team, which boosted his confidence and motivation.[1]
In 2020, Charpentier signed for Genoa in the Italian Serie A, before being loaned to Reggina in the Serie B.[2][3]
On 1 February 2021, Charpentier moved to Serie B side Ascoli, on a loan deal until the end of the season.[4]
On 28 July 2021 he went to Frosinone on loan.[5] He had a great season with Frosinone, scoring ten goals in the league.
On 30 August 2022, Charpentier signed with Parma.[6] In 2024, he won the Serie B and automatic promotion to Serie A with his team.[7]
On 8 September 2025, Charpentier permanently joined Polish Ekstraklasa club Cracovia on a season-long contract, with an one-year extension option.[8]
