**Luc Rienne** is an important character in the fictional TV series, Wonderkid. He is a winger for North London FC, notably playing alongside Jamie Cooper and Austin Allen. He is also the captain of the Canadian Men's National Team, as well as their all-time leading scorer.

Luc is in a very committed relationship with Emma Thorburne, with whom he has a son. Luc also previously dated Lily Emerson, before she met Jamie. During his time at Vancouver City, he grew close with Donovan Ibrahim, Jason Burwood, and Hwang-Sung Park. At this time he also became close friends with Jamie Cooper. After his move to North London, he quickly became friends with Austin Allen.

## Early Life

Luc Rienne was born to wealthy businessman Claude Rienne and famous actress Margaret Aubert in Paris, France, on December 12, 2003. His father was Quebec-born, and met his mother while she was filming a movie in Montreal. They fell in love and she stayed in Quebec. Margaret became pregnant with Luc not long after getting married to Claude. On a trip to Paris, Margaret's hometown, she gave birth to Luc.

Luc was raised in Sherbrooke, Quebec, the place that his parents had chosen to settle down in. When Luc was two years old, his sister, Amelie, was born. They both grew up well, living in luxury as the children of two celebrities. Luc's father was a huge fan of football, and invested lots of money into his son and his development. He did this after discovering Luc had lots of natural talent in the sport. Luc lived a life full of sports camps and training in order for him to reach his full potential. His father constantly pushed him to his limits, even making Luc want to quit at times. However, Luc persevered and eventually earned his shot at professional football.

## Football Career

### Olympique de Quebec

Luc's father was a heavy investor in Quebecois club **Olympique de Quebec**. His money and influence got Luc a spot on their squad when he was just 18 years old. Luc constantly felt pressure from his father and from others to live up to expectations. Many people criticized him and felt that he was only there because of his father's money. After a rough rookie season, Fionn Clarke, the newly appointed manager of Vancouver City, gave the young forward a chance.

### Vancouver City

Luc was sent to Vancouver City on a two-year loan with a sneaky option to buy clause. This would give Luc some much needed time to refine his skills and get back on track with his development. The big difference in Vancouver though, was that the squad was not as good, and so Luc would get more playing time to showcase his skills. He was also much farther away from his father and everyone else who was pushing him past his limits. Luc was able to focus on improving at his own pace, not just doing what his father asked him to do.

Luc still had a chip on his shoulder going into his first season with Vancouver City, and so he wanted to prove that everyone was wrong about him being another terrible player who buys their way onto teams. He did just that, leading the struggling Canadian club in goals at just 20 years of age, in his first season with the team.

Ahead of Luc's second season on loan with Vancouver, he wasn't showing any signs of slowing down. Luc was projected to lead the team in goals once again, and fans were getting excited about his possible potential as a player. However, what was supposed to be his breakout season was immediately overshadowed by the shocking signing of Jamie Cooper.
