## Club career

### [Red Star Anse-aux-Pins](/source/Red_Star_Anse-aux-Pins)

Allen started his career at [Red Star Anse-aux-Pins](/source/Red_Star_Anse-aux-Pins) and spent four years at the club, from 2003 until 2007.[1] [Red Star Anse-aux-Pins](/source/Red_Star_Anse-aux-Pins) had won the title in 2001, shortly before Allen's arrival, but have failed to win the [Seychelles First Division](/source/Seychelles_First_Division) since. In search of silverware, Larue left the club in 2007.

### St Michel United FC

Larue has since moved to another club in the [Seychelles](/source/Seychelles), [St Michel United FC](/source/St_Michel_United_FC). During his time at St Michel, the Seychelles' second-most successful team have won the league title three times in four years, 2008 being the only occasion during Allen's spell at the club that they have failed to win the league. Allen was also part of the St Michel squad who won the President's Cup in 2011, beating [St. Louis Suns United](/source/St._Louis_Suns_United) in the final, although the defender was partly at fault for St Louis' second goal.[2]

## International career

The defender has played thirteen games for his country. One of his first games for the Seychelles came in the [2004 African Cup of Nations](/source/2004_African_Cup_of_Nations) qualifier against [Zimbabwe](/source/Zimbabwe_national_football_team). Larue conceded a penalty for a foul on [Benjani Mwaruwari](/source/Benjani_Mwaruwari) as the Seychelles lost 3-1.[3]

His most recent involvement with the [Seychelles national football team](/source/Seychelles_national_football_team) was in July 2011, when Seychelles played a friendly against [Tanzania](/source/Tanzania_national_football_team) U-23.[4][5] Allen scored his first goal for the Seychelles in the resulting 3-1 loss.[6]
