However, first team manager Denis Renaud gave Bronn the chance to play in three of the side's pre-season friendly matches.

On 18 October 2016, Bronn was given a three-year professional contract by Niort.^[3]

Bronn joined Belgian First Division A side K.A.A. Gent in 2017. He was elected best player of the season of KAA Gent for the 2018–19 season.^{[citation needed]}

He joined FC Metz in 2020.
