Trained at Paris Saint-Germain, Chris Mavinga left the French capital very early to wear the prestigious red shirt of Liverpool, aged only 18. Within an overcrowded staff, the young defender (able to play at centre or on the left) only played with the Reserve, but his caps with the French youth national teams allowed him to shine. In 2010, he won the U19 Euro alongside Abdoulaye Diallo. Loaned to Genk for the second half of the 2010-2011 season, Mavinga eventually found his place in the first time and was crowned Champion of Belgium. Without real perspectives when he returned to Liverpool, he decided to return to France by signing for Stade Rennais, where he will compete for a place on the left side of the defence.
