Club career

Aigle Noir and Leixões

Alcénat was born in Port-au-Prince. In his country, he represented Aigle Noir AC. In January 2009 he moved to Portugal and signed for Leixões SC, making his Primeira Liga debut on 1 February in a 0–0 away draw against C.D. Nacional (one minute played)[2] and finishing his first season with ten appearances – nine as a substitute – as the Matosinhos team finally ranked sixth, narrowly missing out on qualification to the UEFA Europa League.[3]

Alcénat was much more regularly used in the 2009–10 campaign, but Leixões were relegated.

Rio Ave

In September 2011, Alcénat joined another club in the country, Rio Ave F.C. also of the top flight,[4][1] making his debut on the 19th in a 2–3 home defeat to Sporting CP and being sent off in the 75th minute after two yellow cards.[5] He played his second official game for the Vila do Conde side on 16 October, against U.D. Sousense in the third round of the Portuguese Cup, and again received his marching orders after a second bookable offence; both teams finished with nine players, in an eventual 5–2 win for hosts Rio Ave.[6]

Romania

On 22 June 2012, Alcénat signed a two-year contract with Romanian team FC Petrolul Ploiești.[7] Three years later, as his contract was due to expire and with his club facing insolvency, he joined FC Steaua București in the same the country.[8]

Feirense

On 18 August 2016, Alcénat agreed to a two-year deal with Portugal's C.D. Feirense.[9]
