Alain Behi (born 1 July, 1978) is a French-Ivorian football player who currently plays for Randers FC in the Danish Superliga.

Club career

The defensive midfielder has previously played several years for the French Ligue 2 side Châteauroux before moving on to play in the Belgium Jupiler League for RAEC Mons. He got to play 21 league games, scoring 1 goal in the 2004/05 season, but the Club was relegated and after having played 14 second level games in 2005/2006, Alain Behi finally signed a 1½-year deal with Greek top-flight club Kallithea FC in January 2006, but moved on to the Greek 2nd level side PAS Giannina, after Kallithea also had suffered relegation. Unfortunately ther was a dispute about his contract at PAS Giannina, so he left the club and was eventually handed a successful trial at Danish Randers FC.

Randers FC

Alain Behi joined Randers FC as they needed a defensive midfielder. However, Behi failed to achieve a regular place in the starting eleven only playing a few times. In the 2007/08 season Behi ruined Randers' chance of leading the fair play competition (for teams not already qualified for European competitions) completely by getting two yellow cards and thereby a red card against later relegated side Lyngby BK - a competition FC Nordsjaelland later entered the UEFA Cup through.Although being one of Randers' most expensive players, Behi has not played a big part in Randers' succes in the start of season 2008/09 (having 7 points after three matches) not having played single match as a starter and only being put on as a late substitute. Alain Behi will receive further competition with a comeback of former Danish under-21 international Jonas Damborg coming back from a long term injury and Swedish Bobbie da Cruz joining the team at the winter break (both can play defender as well as defensive midfielder.)
