Darnell Eric Bile (born 28 October 2005) is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward for the Milan’s U19 team.

Club career[edit]

Born in Colombes, Darnell Eric Bile joined the Saint-Étienne academy in 2020 from Boulogne-Billancourt.[2]

Having impressed in an under-21 tournament in the pre-season,[3] Bile made his professional debut for Saint-Étienne on the 27 August 2022, coming on as a substitute for Jean-Philippe Krasso, in a 2–2 away Ligue 2 draw against Valenciennes.[2][4]

He also went on to play the following game, a 5-0 league win against Bastia,[2][5] but after his trouble with the French Federation, he also was sidelined by his club for an undetermined period.[6][7]

International career[edit]

Born in France, Bile holds French and Ivorian nationalities.[8][9] He is a youth international for France, first receiving a call with the under-18 in September 2022 for the Tournoi de Limoges, with a 2005 generation that had just won the under-17 Euro.[10][11]

He scored his first goal with France on the 23 September against Scotland.[12] However he made headlines for unfortunate reasons in the next encounter against Poland, as he was the fourth red-carded Frenchman in the second half, forcing the end of the game, and a win for the Polish side, that also won the tournament.[13][14][15][16][17] Following the incident, Bile was suspended by the French Football Federation for 8 months.[18][19]
