Biography

edit

Very little is known about his life; Prouvost was playing football for US Tourquennoise in 1908, when the USFSA selected him for the French B squad that competed in the football tournament of the 1908 Olympic Games in London, but he did not play in any matches as France B was knocked out in the quarter-finals by Denmark (0–9).[2][3]

After the First World War, Prouvost moved to Monaco,[4] becoming the captain of the Monégasque as well as the delegated rapporteur of Monaco-Sports.[5]
