[1] Boukaka made his debut for the reserve team on 10 April 2010, entering play as an injury-time substitute for Yoan Pivaty in a 2–1 defeat to La Vitréenne.
[citation needed] Rennes B were relegated to the Championnat de France Amateur 2 for the 2011–12 campaign after finishing bottom of their group at the end of the previous season, and the drop to a lower division saw Boukaka increase his scoring rate.
