He joined Strasbourg in 1998 and went on to score 19 league goals in 85 matches. During this time he earnt a reputation as one of the hottest French prospects.<BR><BR><STRONG>Lyon<BR><\/STRONG>Luyindula continued his progress up the football ladder after coming to the attention of French giants Lyon. In January 2002 he completed a &#163;5.5m transfer to Lyon and continued his good form scoring 6 goals and helping Lyon win the French League. He remained at Lyon for the next two season winning two more League Championships. He had his most productive season in 2003-04 as he scored 16 league goals helping Lyon to the Ligue 1 title.<BR><BR><STRONG>Marseille<BR><\/STRONG>Following the club record sale of Didier Drogba for &#163;24 million pounds to Chelsea, Marseille set their sights on Luyindula as a replacement. Although Luyindula expressed his desire to remain at Lyon and despite their recent success the club still suffered from financial troubles and a sale looked probable. Eventually he completed a &#163;7.5m move to l&#39;OM.<BR><BR>He quickly found himself out of favour at the V&#233;lodrome, in spite of being the club&#39;s best goalscorer for 2004&#8211;05. Loaned out to AJ Auxerre, where he reunited with his former Lyon coach Jacques Santini, during the 2005&#8211;06 season, Luyindula failed to convince the club to keep him on a permanent basis. In the summer of 2006, he thus moved back to Marseille and found himself on the fringes of the first team, before another loan move materialized, this time to Spanish club UD Levante.<BR><BR><STRONG>Paris Saint&#8211;Germain<BR><\/STRONG>Luyindula didn&#39;t last long in Spain. Following six months during which he saw little first team action, he terminated his deal with the Spanish side to move to Paris Saint-Germain, again on loan. He debuted for the French capital club on 10 February 2007. In the summer of 2007, the Parisian club purchased Luyindula on a definite basis.<BR><BR>The 2008&#8211;09 season proved to be much more positive for the Kinshasa-born forward. With the arrival of no less than four attacking reinforcements (Ludovic Giuly, Guillaume Hoarau, St&#233;phane Sess&#232;gnon and Mateja Ke\u017eman) in the summer, Luyindula lost his spot in the starting line-up. However, he was often used as a supersub, especially in UEFA Cup games. In September 2009, Luyindula signed a two-year extension to his deal with the club, this tied him to the club until 2012. During the 2011\/12 campaign Luyindula had a falling out with manager Antoine Kombouare and as a result was relegated to the reserve side.<BR><BR>In December 2012 it was reported that Luyindula would be terminating his contract with PSG to sign with New York Red Bulls.<\/P>","0FCC2F07B9D0EBFD":"New York Red Bulls","A7F9B63E25A659E5":"Peguy Luyindula","18E9F76C307DDD99":"197","F27CBDD6332F20A59321B0F4E9CF2AB8":"8","0C852134AA40B2DD":"1","2B5572269355781B0007104B7181FA88":"1979-5-25","FA149E2002A43ED77C24C62CDFF094A5":"0","DA5E7C1A0F1CB829A66A16651D2472FD":"France","30A86FC0880FF75E":"178cm","C6E00DEB351621C4":"10639","8DC362CCE065919BCF40467C0DE6A7E8":"<P><STRONG>RC Strasbourg<BR><\/STRONG>Coupe de France: 2001<BR><BR><STRONG>Olympique Lyonnais<BR><\/STRONG>Ligue 1: 2002, 2003, 2004,<BR>Troph&#233;e Des Champions: 2002, 2003<BR><BR><STRONG>Paris Saint-Germain F.C.<BR><\/STRONG>Coupe de la Ligue: 2008<BR>Coupe de France: 2010<\/P>","9EBD0BFF9766B31DEF99430639A2F292":"Paris Saint Germain","0A9B0394F31973591937C38F2F471911":"Paris Saint Germain,Levante,Auxerre,Marseille,Lyonnais,Strasbourg","09702F2B27619389F07D77F05427B135":"2013-3-19","5E8F53D0A504BF86":"Peguy Luyindula","A16D5E6475634BB1C2248B183B7E41495B218039EB2EF0A3":"0","A16D5E6475634BB126EF698FB3550B8C":"0","e_index":1};
