Club career
editEarly career
editPayet was born inSaint-Pierreon the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean and began his career at local club AS Saint-Philippe.[7]While at the club as a youth, he was described by coaches as "a kid who stood out from his comrades" and, after three years of development training, moved to one of the best clubs on the island,JS Saint-Pierroise.[8]After only a year at Saint-Pierroise, Payet was signed by professional clubLe Havreinmetropolitan France,with whom his club shared a mutual partnership. Le Havre also recruited former Saint-Pierroise playersFlorent Sinama PongolleandGuillaume Hoarauduring this period.[7]
While at Le Havre, Payet endured a tumultuous four years. While training at the club, he was accused of having a difficult character and displaying a lack of motivation.[9]The accusations ultimately led to his departure in 2003 as Payet returned to Réunion to sign withAS Excelsior.He spent only a year and a half at Excelsior playing in theRéunion Premier Leaguebefore being signed in January 2005 byNanteswho sought to give the player another opportunity to prove himself on the mainland. Payet signed a two-year amateur deal with the club; however, Nantes were given the option of terminating the contract after six months.[9]
Nantes
editUpon his arrival at Nantes, Payet was placed in the club's reserve team in theChampionnat de France Amateur,the fourth level offootball in France.In the 2005–06 season, Payet quickly established himself as one of the best players on the reserve team. He impressed with the team in 22 matches scoring six goals and was described by the club's reserve team coach Stéphane Moreau as a "talented player despite his natural indifference".[10][11]His influential play with the team resulted in the player being called up to the senior team in December 2005 by managerSerge Le Dizet.Payet made his professional debut on 19 December in a league match againstBordeauxappearing as a substitute in a 0–0 draw.[12]After the winter break, Payet remained with the senior team and scored his first professional goal in a 4–1 win overMetz.The midfielder appeared as a substitute in the match and had been on the field for no more than two minutes before netting the goal.[13]After appearing in a league match againstToulouseon 4 February, Payet was relegated back to the reserve team for the rest of the season.[14]
Ahead of the2006–07 season,Payet signed a three-year professional contract with Nantes. He was officially promoted to the senior team and assigned the number 31 shirt by Le Dizet. After appearing as a substitute in the first two matches of the season, Payet made his first professional start on 9 September 2006 in a league match againstLille.In the match, he scored the equalizing goal in a 1–1 draw.[15]Two weeks later, Payet started again and scored the opening goal in a 2–1 win againstMarseille.[16]Payet, subsequently, appeared as a starter for the rest of the campaign. He scored his only other goal during the season in a 1–1 draw withSedan.[17]One dark spot during the campaign was a straightred cardin an embarrassing 5–2 loss toValenciennes.[18]Despite the successful individual season by Payet, Nantes ultimately finished the season in 19th place and were relegated, which meant the club would play inLigue 2for the first time since 1963.[citation needed]
Saint-Étienne
editFollowing Nantes' relegation, Payet's desire to remain in the first division led the player to issuing a transfer request. The player was, subsequently, linked withSochauxandSaint-Étienne.Payet ultimately decided to sign withLes Verts,stating the move to the club was a "straightforward logical answer" and that Saint-Étienne "can offer me the opportunity to play, which is a priority".[19]Payet ultimately succeeded in getting the move after agreeing to a four-year contract with the club ahead of the2007–08 season.Nantes was compensated €4 million for the player.[11]
In his first season at Saint-Étienne, Payet struggled to assert himself into the team. He made his club debut on 4 August 2007 in a 1–1 draw withMonaco.Despite being a starter for the majority of the campaign, Payet scored no goals and also failed to provide any assists. In a reversal of fortune, despite Payet's sub-par season, Saint-Étienne finished in fifth place, which meant qualification to theUEFA Cup.In the2008–09 season,Payet return to the form that resulted in Saint-Étienne signing the player. Prior to the start of the season, he was given the honour ofcaptainingSaint-Étienne during afriendlyagainst theRéunion national teamin the player's return to the island.[20]Payet appeared in 30 league matches scoring four goals and supplying six assists in the season. He scored his first league goal for the club on 29 September 2008 in a 1–1 draw with Bordeaux, netting the opener.[21]In December 2008, he scored the game-winning goal against his former club Le Havre.[22]

Payet appeared as a substitute in both legs. Due to focusing its efforts on performing well in four competitions, Saint-Étienne finished one spot short of relegation in the league. On 22 July 2009, Payet signed a two-year contract extension with the club until 2013.[27]
In the2009–10 season,Payet remained consistent appearing in 35 league matches scoring two goals and providing six assists. He also performed well in the cup competitions, particularly in theCoupe de France.On 24 January 2010, he scored a double in 4–1 victory overLorient.[28]Two weeks later, he scored the winner againstVannes.[29]Saint-Étienne ultimately reached the quarter-finals losing toLens.On 18 May 2010, Payet was involved in a physical altercation with teammate and captainBlaise Matuididuring the team's 1–0 defeat to Toulouse.[30]Midway through the first half, Payet received criticism from teammateYohan Benalouanefor displaying a lack of aggression. He was then confronted by Matuidi, who echoed Benalouane's sentiments. Payet and Matuidi suddenly went face-to-face with the former player delivering a blow to Matuidi's head before the two were separated by referee Bruno Coue and teammates.[31]As a result of the incident, Payet was substituted out after 31 minutes and sanctioned by club president Roland Romeyer.[32]Payet apologized for the incident shortly after. On 6 October 2010, following both Payet and Matuidi's call up to the national team, Payet described the incident as "an argument that had no place" and that "the incident was explained and the two were on new ground". Matuidi described the altercation as a "lack of maturity" on both players part.[33]
After the summer, Payet put the past behind him and opened the2010–11 seasonby scoring seven goals in the first two months of domestic play. On 7 August 2010, he scored in the team's opening 3–1 defeat toParis Saint-Germain.[34]On 29 August 2010, Payet scored his first professionalhat-trickin a 3–1 victory overLens.[35]After the international break, he scored a double againstMontpellier.[36]On 25 September, Payet delivered a perfect free-kick goal in the team'sDerby du Rhônematch againstLyon.The free-kick, described by local media as "superb and untouchable", was the only goal in the team's upset victory.[37][38]The win placed Saint-Étienne in first place for the week. For his performances, Payet was awarded theUNFP Player of the Monthaward for September. Due to his performances domestically and international, Payet drew interest from several clubs, notably English clubsChelseaandLiverpool.[39]In January 2011, he was linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain as the Parisian club looked to immediately replace the departedStéphane Sessègnon.Payet sought for the move, but Saint-Étienne refused. Ahead of the closure of the transfer window, a frustrated Payet failed to show up to training in an effort to force the transfer.[40]After returning to the team days later, Payet was demoted to the club's reserve team ahead of the team's league match against Montpellier on 5 February 2011.[41]
Payet returned to Saint-Étienne's line-up for the following match against Lyon on 12 February. In his last 14 matches of 2010–11, Payet scored five goals and also registered a further three assists.[42]He ended the season with 13 goals, making himLes Verts'top scorer.[43]

Marseille

In hissecond and final seasonwith Marseille, Payet made more successful through-balls than any other player, with the exception ofLionel Messi,inEuropean football's top five leagues.He made almost twice as many key passes as any other player, and made 17 assists in 36 league appearances, topping the Ligue 1 assist charts. Payet credited his excellent 2014–2015 Marseille season which transformed his career toMarcelo Bielsa,who was appointed the head coach of Marseille on a two-year contract in May 2014. "I clicked with him", he later toldL'Équipe."He made me more mature and consistent. He put order into my game. I still have his advice in my head."[54][55]The key, according toJan Van Winckel(who was Bielsa's assistant during the 2014–2015 season), was giving him the pivotal No. 10 role and making him the focal point of attacks.[55]
"Bielsa was the first to recognise that Dimitri is a playmaker and not a winger. Dimitri is probably the best player in the world, together withAndrés Iniesta,with his back to the goal. He is so technically gifted and agile that it is almost impossible to get the ball from him. It is no coincidence that Dimi scored against Romania (at the Euro 2016 finals in France) when he was playing in a central role. "
