Sonny Degert (born 21 December 2001) is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward for Ligue 2 club Pau FC. [1]
Born in Bordeaux, Degert began his football journey with his local team FCE Mérignac-Arlac at the tender age of 5. [2] He later joined FC Girondins de Bordeaux at 10 but found himself back at FCE Mérignac-Arlac in 2015. His debut for the Mérignac-Arlac senior team arrived in 2019, where he showcased his skills in the Championnat National 3, the fifth division of the French football league system.
Following a stint at ambitious Bergerac in the Championnat National 2, where he featured in just 2 matches over 2 seasons, Degert sought to reignite his goal-scoring prowess with a move to Pouzaugues in National 3. His impressive performance led to a transfer to Pau FC's reserve side at the outset of the 2022–23 Pau FC season. Netting 12 goals in 24 matches caught the attention of the new coach, Nicolas Usaï, who seamlessly integrated him into the Pau FC main squad for the 2023–24 season in Ligue 2. [3] Degert made his Pau debut during a 2–0 Ligue 2 loss against SM Caen on 12 August 2023. [4]
Initially trained as a midfielder, Degert transitioned into a striker when he made his debut for the Merignac first team.

Pau Football Club, commonly referred to as Pau FC, is a professional football club based in Pau, capital of Béarn, France. Pau FC plays its home matches at the Nouste Camp and competes in Ligue 2, the second tier of French football. Nicknamed Les Maynats, Pau FC traces its origins to the patronage of the Bleuets de Notre-Dame, officially founded in 1920 in the Mayolis district. By the onset of the 1958-59 season, the Bleuets had ascended to the highest amateur division in the French football league system, prompting religious authorities to acknowledge its sporting prowess, surpassing that of a mere local football club. Under the stewardship of its founding president, José Bidegain, the Bleuets de Notre-Dame's senior team transitioned into the Football-Club de Pau. By the 60s, they had settled in the Stade du Hameau, harbouring ambitions of turning professional.
