Fabien Barthez, born in 1971, is a French international footballer who played as a goalkeeper from 1990 to 2007. With 87 caps between 1994 and 2006, he is the most capped goalkeeper in the history of the French national team at the World Cup, making 17 appearances in three finals (1998, 2002 and 2006).
