On 5 July 2016, Lestienne moved to Russian club Rubin Kazan.

From 12 July 2015, Lestienne was loaned out to PSV until the end of the 2015–16 season. PSV decided not to exercise its option to buy the player at the end of the loan spell.

Lestienne was transferred to Al-Arabi in the summer of 2014.

Lestienne came up through the youth ranks at Royal Excelsior Mouscron. At the time of his debut in the senior squad on 20 December 2008, Mouscron was competing in the Belgian First Division.
