Barthez is the son of Alain Barthez, a former rugby union scrum half with Narbonne and France.
He started playing at Lavalenet and turned professional at Toulouse in 1990 and joined Marseille in 1992. He joined AS Monaco in 1995 after breaking into the national side in 1994 but played second fiddle to the well-established Bernard Lama.
His career was interrupted when he was banned from playing for four months after failing a routine drugs test in 1996.
Barthez made the French squad for the 1996 European Championship Finals played in England but could not displace Lama and he did not make a single appearance.
He replaced him as the France number one goalkeeper when Lama ironically failed a dope test in 1997.
He only conceded two goals in the 1998 World Cup Finals and only missed one match when the French achieved a unique double when winning the 2000 European Championships.
Barthez signed for Manchester United following the 2000 European Championships for £7.8 million and despite being hampered by a back injury established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the Premiership.
An eccentric goalkeeper who could endear then frustrate. Superb one week, comical the next.
