Ligue 1 debut for
AS Saint-Étienne as an injury time substitute in their 2–0 away win at
AS Nancy Lorraine on 25 January 2007. For the 2008–09 season Faye signed a three year professional contract and was loaned to
Ligue 2 side
Tours FC, where he scored his first professional goal in the 95th minute of the game against
Angers SCO on 3 April 2009. During his time at Tours he also scored a hat-trick in the
Coupe de France; the 7–1 round of 64 victory over

CS Feytiat. Whilst at Chambéry, he was part of the team which reached the quarter final of the
2010–11 Coupe de France, beating
Monaco,
Brest and
Sochaux on the way. He scored the goal in the Round of 32 match against Brest. He wasn't involved in the quarter final tie due to a seven match suspension received for fighting during a league game. ==References==
