Club career

[edit]

Arno started playing soccer at age five at KFC Heusden Sport and left at age eight for Sporting Lokeren.[1] Monsecour played a number of years at Lokeren's academy. In May 2014, Monsecour signed a 3-year contract with Monsecour, with an option for one more year.[2] He only made his official debut on August 17, 2017 when Monsecour replaced an injured Branislav Niňaj in the 86th minute, in a league match against K.V. Mechelen.[3]

On August 8, 2014, Monsecour receiver his first call-up for Lokeren in the Belgian First Division A, however, without making his debut.[4] He only made his official debut on February 18, 2017 when Monsecour replaced an injured Branislav Niňaj in the 86th minute, in a league match against K.V. Mechelen.[5] Monsecour eventually played six league games in his debut season. In the 2017/18 season, he hit ten league games. Afterwards, however, he failed to break through further at Lokeren. However, in March 2018 he extended his contract until June 2021.[6]

After Lokeren ended the 2018–19 season with relegation to the Belgian First Division B, Monsecour was relegated to the club's U23 team. Here he played one season before hanging up his boots.[7]
