French amateur leagues

Prohouly turned down a contract offer from Red Star in the hope of a more financially lucrative offer that never came.[8] Before the second half of the 2018–19 season, he signed for Racing Club de France in the Championnat National 3.[10] He played his first game in senior football on 16 February 2019, in a 0–0 draw with Les Mureaux at Stade Yves-du-Manoir, and made two further appearances for the club.[11] In 2019, he signed for Championnat National 2 team Lorient B.[12] He scored his first career goal on 17 August 2019, during a 1–1 draw at Fleury 91.[11] He rejected the chance to play in Bulgaria as he wanted his wife to be able to commute to London.[8] In 2021, he signed for Grande-Synthe in Régional 1.[13] He helped the sixth-tier club to reach the Round of 64 in the Coupe de France, where they were beaten by Boulogne.[11]
