Bradley Locko was born in
Ivry-sur-Seine and went through several football academies in
Paris suburbs, including CA Vitry and
US Ivry, before spending some years in
Montrouge, from where he joined
FC Lorient in 2019.[3]
He made his professional debut for Reims on 15 August 2021, starting the
Ligue 1 3–3 home draw against
Montpelier as a
left-back.[5][7] His performance was viewed as promising one, among a fairly young Reims team, with the likes of
Ilan Kebbal and
Hugo Ekitike.[8]
On 31 January 2023, Locko joined
Brest on loan with an option to buy.[9] Later that year, on 27 July, Brest announced the permanent signing of Locko on a four-year contract,[10] for a reported fee of €500.000.[11] Later on, he was named in the
Team of the Year for the
2023–24 season,[12] as his club secured a third-place finish in the league and first ever qualification to the
UEFA Champions League.[13]
Personal life
Born in France, Locko holds French and Congolese nationalities.[14] His twin brother, Bryan Locko, is also a footballer who was with him in the academy of
Lorient.[15]
