1971
Born June 28 in Lavelanet, France.
2006
July 9: Member of the French squad that lost the FIFA World Cup final against Italy 1-1 (3-5 PSO) in Berlin's Olympiastadion.
October 05: Fabien Barthez announced his retirement from soccer, three months after helping France reach its second World Cup final.
December 17: Fabien Barthez confirmed he had decided to come out of retirement to help Ligue 1 strugglers Nantes in their bid to escape relegation. "If they had called me two months ago, I would probably have said no," Barthez told French television channel TF1.
2007
February 27: Was the hero for Nantes as he helped them reach the French Cup semi-finals with a 6-5 win on penalties over Sedan. Barthez produced the crucial save after the tie had ended 1-1 after extra time when he punched out Sedan's sixth penalty from Nicolas Marin.
April 29: Left Nantes a day after getting into a fight with a supporter after the club moved closer to relegation with a 2-0 home defeat by Stade Rennes. Barthez left his Nantes home in his car with his children for an unknown destination. It was not clear whether he had left for a few days or for good.
May 9: Relegated from the French Ligue 1 to the Ligue 2 with Nantes, who had played for a record 44 consecutive season in the First Division.

FIFA World Cup™
Germany 2006 player's profile
The old adage that all goalkeepers are slightly crazy could have
been fashioned on his antics.
Occasionally quite brilliant and often steady, but at other times
Barthez has been guilty of making an inexplicable faux-pas.
Played in every match at the
1998 FIFA World Cup™, where France won the tournament, and
three more at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, where France failed to
win a match.
Was a member of the victorious
UEFA Euro 2000 team, and played in two matches at the 2003 FIFA
Confederations Cup, including the final which France won.

UEFA EURO 2004™ player's profile
An acrobatic goalkeeper with superb reflexes, Fabien Barthez
is one of the most recognisable custodians in world football.
National team
He made his France debut in 1994, yet only became No1 after EURO
96™. His excellent displays at the 1998 FIFA World Cup,
where he conceded just two goals, were a key factor in France
lifting their first world crown. He was also in prime form at
UEFA EURO 2000™ as Les Bleus triumphed again. Korea/Japan
was less successful for Barthez and France, although both recovered
to qualify for Portugal.
UEFA EURO 2004™ qualifying
Sat out the opening 2-1 victory in Cyprus before reclaiming the
No1 jersey from Grégory Coupet for the remaining seven
matches, conceding just one goal in an emphatic Group 1 campaign.
Club
Barthez began his career with Toulouse FC before moving on to
Olympique de Marseille in 1992. He helped Marseille win the inaugural
UEFA Champions League title, defeating AC Milan 1-0. However,
the club's Le Championnat success was rescinded after officials
were found guilty of fixing a match.
1995: Domestic titles followed
in 1997 and 2000 after a switch to AS Monaco FC.
2000: Signed by Manchester
United FC for €12.5m, Barthez was a Premiership winner in
his first season at Old Trafford, yet there was disappointment
to come as United ended the following term without any silverware.Barthez
played 30 Premiership matches as United wrested back their title
from Arsenal FC, although they fell at the quarter-final hurdle
in the Champions League, losing to Real Madrid CF.
2003/04: Vowed to stay on and
fight for his place after losing his status as United's No1 keeper
to Tim Howard, only to complete a protracted return to Marseille
in January after FIFA blocked a loan move. His season ended on
a low note as he was dismissed in the final of the UEFA Cup,
prompting a 2-0 defeat for Marseille at the hands of Valencia
CF.
Did you know?
Barthez's father, Alain, played rugby union for France.
