Playing career

Club

Born in Oullins, Rhône, Garande finished his development at AS Saint-Étienne, but appeared rarely for the first team during his tenure. In 1981, following a spell in the Swiss Super League with CS Chênois, he signed with AJ Auxerre, scoring a career-best 21 goals in the 1983–84 season to help them finish in third place in Ligue 1 and becoming top scorer in the process. [2]

After leaving the Stade de l'Abbé-Deschamps in the summer of 1986, Garande went on to represent, in the French top division, FC Nantes, Saint-Étienne, Montpellier HSC, Le Havre AC and FC Sochaux-Montbéliard, eventually amassing competition totals of 314 matches and 97 goals. He retired at the age of 34, after a stint with amateurs US Orléans for which he had already played in Ligue 2. [3]

International

Garande was part of the French Olympic team that won the gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. [4] He won his only cap for the full side on 27 April 1988, in a 0–0 friendly away draw in Northern Ireland. [5]

Style of play

Garande was known for his intelligent movement as a forward, which made him difficult for opposing defenders to mark, with French former defender Lilian Thuram labelling him as one of his most difficult opponents throughout his career. [6]

Coaching career

In 1995, Garande joined Stade Malherbe Caen as assistant to Pierre Mankowski. [7] He moved to AS Cherbourg Football in directorial capacities in January 1999, being named head coach the following year and achieving promotion to the Championnat National. [8]

In June 2012, following Caen's relegation to the second division, Garande replaced fired Franck Dumas as manager. [9] After a third place in the 2013–14 campaign and the subsequent promotion, the side managed to avoid relegation after a spectacular comeback, and his contract was renewed until 2017. [10]

After again leading the club to top-flight survival, Garande left the Stade Michel d'Ornano in May 2018. [11] Two years later, he was appointed at Toulouse FC who had just finished last in the abridged 2019–20 Ligue 1. [12]

On 23 August 2021, Garande was hired by second-tier Dijon FCO. [13]
