In January 2024, Escartin was loaned out to Ligue 2 club Ajaccio for the rest of the season, having made no appearances with Brest's first team in the previous twelve months.[5] According to himself, he joined the club in order to "find more game time".[6] He went on to make three Ligue 2 appearances for the club.[7] On 11 August 2024, Escartin joined newly-promoted Ligue 2 club Red Star.[8]
