'''Sébastien Frey''' (born 18 March 1980) is a French former professional [[Association football|footballer]] who played as a [[Goalkeeper (association football)|goalkeeper]].

Frey began his club career in France with [[AS Cannes|Cannes]] in 1997. He went on to spend most of his career in the Italian [[Serie A]], playing for [[Inter Milan]], [[Hellas Verona FC|Hellas Verona]], [[Parma FC|Parma]], [[ACF Fiorentina|Fiorentina]], and [[Genoa CFC|Genoa]]. He ended his career in 2015, after two seasons with Turkish side [[Bursaspor]]. At international level, he represented the [[France national football team]] on two occasions between 2007 and 2008 and was an unused member of the squad that took part at [[UEFA Euro 2008]].

==Club career==
===Cannes===
Frey began his career with French side [[AS Cannes]] in 1997, at the age of 17. On 20 September 1997, he made his professional league debut, playing as a starter in a 1–1 home draw against [[Stade Rennais F.C.|Rennes]]. At the end of the 1997–98 season, Frey made 24 league appearances and took [[Grégory Wimbée]]'s starting goalkeeping spot in the first team.{{citation needed|date=June 2020}}

===Inter Milan===
Following two promising seasons at Cannes, Frey began to attract attention from abroad, most noticeably from [[Inter Milan]] whom had been notified of his exceptional talents by former keeper [[Walter Zenga]] and [[Serie A]] rivals [[Juventus FC|Juventus]]. Eventually, he opted to join Inter. At Inter in earlier season, he was the third goalkeeper behind [[Andrea Mazzantini]] and [[Gianluca Pagliuca]] until Mazzantini was sold to [[AC Perugia Calcio|Perugia]], making Frey as second choice goalkeeper. On 21 March 1999, Frey finally made his debut for the club against [[Genoa CFC|Genoa]]. Frey also made an appearance against [[UC Sampdoria|Sampdoria]] when he was put on instead of Pagliuca at 70 minutes on the score (and final) 4–0. He ended the season with a total of seven league appearances for Nerazzurri.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

====Loan to Verona and return to Inter Milan====
In the summer transfer window of 1999, Frey moved on loan to [[Hellas Verona FC|Verona]], where he played thirty league appearances and helped the team in order to avoid relegation.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

The following year, he returned from loan to play for Inter, as the club sold [[Angelo Peruzzi]] for cash and [[Marco Ballotta]]. At Inter, Frey was recalled in view of his performance with Verona and Inter, and in the [[2000–01 Serie A|2000–01]] season, he became the youngest goalie in the Lombard team's history, and the first foreigner to move from Inter to this post. He also participated in the preliminary round of the [[1999–2000 UEFA Champions League qualifying rounds|Champions League]]. His exemplary behavior, his maturity and dedication to the club propel him on rare occasions to be the team [[Captain (association football)|captain]]. However, the team played below expectations, and the club decided to make several changes to the squad; after the arrival of [[Francesco Toldo]] from Fiorentina, Frey was placed on the transfer list.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

===Parma===
Following Toldo's transfer to Inter, Frey was forced to find a new club. He was transferred to [[Parma FC|Parma]] in the summer of 2001, for 8&nbsp;billion [[Italian lira|lire]] cash plus [[Sérgio Conceição]] (Conceição was tagged for 32 billion lire,<ref name=Parma2002bilancio>Parma AC SpA Report and Accounts on 30 June 2002 {{in lang|it}}, [http://www.registroimprese.it/ CCIAA]</ref> Inter's official site claimed the cash was 10 billion lire<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.inter.it/aas/news/reader?L=en&N=723|title= FREY TO PARMA, CONCEIÇAO AND 10&nbsp;Billion TO INTER |date=5 July 2001|access-date=10 March 2010|work=inter.it}}</ref>), or 40 billion lire<ref>FC Internazionale Milano SpA Report and Accounts on 30 June 2002 {{in lang|it}}, [http://www.registroimprese.it/ CCIAA]</ref> with whom he won the [[2001–02 Coppa Italia]]. Frey was the replacement for [[Gianluigi Buffon]] who was sold to Juventus for a transfer fee of 100 billion lire<ref name=Parma2002bilancio/> in the same window. The transfer fee was the world-record goalkeeper's transfer fee at that time. It was a difficult task for Frey to replace Buffon.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

His experience in Parma was positive and provided ample opportunity for Frey to demonstrate his talent and justify the trust placed in him by the club. He became a key element of the squad and regularly played in the [[UEFA Cup]]. Frey won the [[2001–02 Coppa Italia|2001–02]] edition of the [[Coppa Italia]] with Parma, leading the club to win the title for the third time since 1992; however, Frey never played in the tournament with [[Cláudio Taffarel]] preferred for the [[2002 Coppa Italia final|final]].<ref>{{cite news

In June 2005, Parma avoided relegation to Serie B against Bologna, thanks to Frey and his outstanding performance. Despite his attachment to the club, an economic concern of the latter to balance its budget meant Frey had to be sold. Frey joined Fiorentina for the [[2005–06 Serie A|2005–06 season]], after four seasons with Parma, on the a loan with an option to be.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

===Fiorentina===

After a positive first half of the season for him and his team, on 10 January 2006, during a match in the Coppa Italia against Juventus, he received a blow after a conflict with [[Marcelo Zalayeta]].{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

Due to the clash, Frey received blunt trauma to the tibia, which ruled him out of the starting line-up for several months, forcing the club's sporting director [[Pantaleo Corvino]] to hire a replacement, which turned out to be Romanian keeper [[Bogdan Lobonț]].{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

On 15 May 2006, the Florentine officials announced the outright purchase of Frey, buying him for an amount equal to €6 million. In the new season Frey regained his starting spot in goal, after an initial physiological problems due to long stop regains fitness.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

On 13 December 2007, Frey suffered a meniscus injury during training, and underwent knee surgery the next day. He returned for Fiorentina's 2–1 victory over Parma on 13 January 2008, after being sidelined for one month, and his outstanding play was rewarded with a contract extension.<ref>[http://www.mercato365.com/depeches/filinfo_247487_2514_Fiorentina-Frey-va-rester.shtml Frey va rester] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080629001401/http://www.mercato365.com/depeches/filinfo_247487_2514_Fiorentina-Frey-va-rester.shtml |date=29 June 2008 }}</ref> Fiorentina reached the semi-finals of the [[2007–08 UEFA Cup|UEFA Cup]] that season.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

In the [[2008–09 Serie A]] season, Frey conceded less than a goal per game, conceding only thirty-one goals in thirty-eight matches.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

On 2 November 2010, Frey injured his knee during training, suffering an [[Anterior cruciate ligament injury]],<ref>{{cite news|url=http://it.violachannel.tv/dettaglio-ultimora/items/report-medico.5085.html|title=REPORT MEDICO|trans-title=Medical Report|date=2 November 2010|access-date=12 November 2010|work=Viola Channel|language=it}}</ref> ruling him out for the rest of the season.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/clubfootball/news/newsid=1332442.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101116004255/http://www.fifa.com/worldfootball/clubfootball/news/newsid=1332442.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=16 November 2010|title=Frey undergoes knee surgery|date=10 November 2010|access-date=12 November 2010|agency=AFP |publisher=Published by FIFA.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://it.violachannel.tv/dettaglio-ultimora/items/report-medico-frey.html|title=REPORT MEDICO FREY|date=10 November 2010|access-date=12 November 2010|work=Viola Channel|language=it}}</ref>

===Genoa===
In 2011, Frey joined [[Genoa CFC|Genoa]] on a five-year deal{{citation needed|date=July 2017}} on a free transfer<ref>ACF Fiorentina SpA Report and Accounts on 31 December 2011 (in Italian)</ref> after falling out of favour with Fiorentina and being replaced by the newly signed [[Artur Boruc]], who had joined the club from [[Celtic F.C.|Celtic]] the previous season. The move turned out to be a failure as Genoa was moving backwards and was ever present in the relegation zone. Frey left after 2 years and was replaced by [[Mattia Perin]]. Before joining Genoa, Frey revealed talks with French spenders [[Paris Saint-Germain F.C.|PSG]] during the summer transfer window, but the capital side eventually acquired Palermo goalkeeper [[Salvatore Sirigu]] instead. Frey also revealed that German side [[FC Bayern Munich|Bayern Munich]] was keen to sign him in the past.<ref>{{cite news|title=Genoa's Sebastien Frey: I spoke with Paris Saint-Germain last summer & Bayern Munich have wanted me in the past|url=http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/3276/serie-a/2012/02/03/2883985/genoas-sebastien-frey-i-spoke-with-paris-saint-germain-last|publisher=Goals.com|date=3 February 2012|access-date=3 February 2012}}</ref>

He earned his first cap in France's final [[UEFA Euro 2008]] qualifier against [[Ukraine national football team|Ukraine]] on 21 November 2007.

==Style of play==
Known for his leadership, composure, mentality, strength of character, personality, and consistency, Frey was regarded as one of the best Serie A goalkeepers of his generation throughout his career. A dynamic and agile keeper, who was highly regarded for his acrobatic shot-stopping and aerial ability, he was known in particular for his reactions and his athleticism in goal, as well as his positional sense, [[Goalkeeper (association football)#Sweeper-keeper|speed and ability to rush out in one on one situations]], although he was less effective at coming off his line to claim crosses, and performed better between the posts; a former outfield player in his youth, in addition to his goalkeeping abilities, Frey also possessed reliable ball skills and distribution with his feet.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://archiviostorico.gazzetta.it/2000/gennaio/15/Fenomeno_Frey_nato_per_essere_ga_0_0001153873.shtml|title=Fenomeno Frey, nato per essere numero 1|publisher=La Gazzetta dello Sport|language=it|author1=Pierfrancesco Archetti|date=15 January 2000|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://archiviostorico.gazzetta.it/2001/marzo/14/Buffon_Van_der_Sar_maestri_ga_0_0103144255.shtml|title=Buffon e Van der Sar maestri con i piedi|publisher=La Gazzetta dello Sport|language=it|author1=Matteo Dore|date=14 March 2001|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2009/01/07/portieri-giudicano-frey-fortissimo-ma.html|title=I portieri giudicano Frey 'è fortissimo, ma Buffon...'|publisher=La Repubblica|language=it|author1=Leonardo Petri|date=7 January 2009|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2005/aug/23/europeanfootball.sport1|title=Pay-offs, insolvency and the curious case of Christian Vieri|work=The Guardian|author1=James Richardson|date=23 August 2005|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sportmediaset.mediaset.it/calcio/calcio/francia-frey-si-ritira-grazie-a-tutti-_1083465-201502a.shtml|title=Francia, Frey si ritira: "Grazie a tutti"|publisher=Sport Mediaset|language=it|date=5 December 2015|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.firenzeviola.it/l-esclusiva/pagliuca-frey-a-un-portiere-con-tanti-pregi-2627|title=PAGLIUCA, Frey è un portiere con tanti pregi|publisher=FirenzeViola.it|language=it|author1=Marco Conterio|date=19 March 2007|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/altre-notizie/peruzzi-il-carattere-punto-di-forza-di-frey-125126|title=Peruzzi: ''Il carattere punto di forza di Frey''|publisher=TuttoMercatoWeb.com|language=it|date=13 October 2008|access-date=18 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tuttojuve.com/le-esclusive-di-tj/esclusiva-tj-ag-buffon-gigi-in-campo-fino-a-40-anni-dzeko-e-la-carrambata-col-padre-85574|title=ESCLUSIVA TJ - ag.
