Early years

Aguemon began playing American football in the youth ranks of La Courneuve Flash. He finished second with the French U19 national team at the 2011 European Junior Championships in Cologne. The following year, he became the French junior champion with the Flash. In 2018, Aguemon was also part of the French national team that became European champions in Vantaa. In the final against Austria, he recorded 63 rushing yards and a touchdown. [1] In the 2019 season, he was mainly used as a defensive player.

Professional career

Aguemon was signed by the Lübeck Cougars from the German Football League 2 in July 2015.[1] In five games, he recorded 163 rushing yards and 21 receiving yards for a total of two touchdowns.[2] He then returned to the Flash and won the Casque de Diamant, the Division 1 Elite Championship French championship with the team in 2017 and 2018. In 2018, after participating in a Canadian Football League (CFL) hosted Combine in Paris in January 2020, he was invited to the CFL Combine scheduled in Toronto in late March. [2] [3] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the event was cancelled and virtually made up in 2021. [4] Aguemon went undrafted in the 2021 CFL Global Draft.

In May 2021, Aguemon signed with the Leipzig Kings for the inaugural season of the European League of Football (ELF). [5] Aguemon posted the fifth most rushing yards in the league (518), but missed the playoffs with the Kings and a record of five wins to five losses. Aguemon moved to the newly formed Rhein Fire franchise for the 2022 ELF season, [6] where he began the season as a starter before having to relinquish that role to Daniel Rennich. He was released by the Fire midway through the season in late July. [7] In October 2022, Aguemon ended his national team career after the European Championship group stage match against Austria.

Aguemon returned home for the 2023 season, signing a contract with the newly formed Paris Musketeers of the European League of Football. [8] He rushed for 333 yards in 12 games during the 2023 season. [9]
