Francois Clerc is preferred for France.Career
Réveillère made his
Ligue 1 debut onFebruary 3 ,1998 playing for Rennes. After spending 6 years with Rennes, he made a winter move to the Spanish sideValencia CF . After half a season there, Réveillère made the move back to his birth country signing with then first-time championsOlympique Lyonnais . Since his signing, Lyon have won 5 straight Ligue 1 titles.To those not following the Olympique Lyonnais, Réveillère's claim to European fame, rather than many of his great performances in the Champions' League including a fantastic assist to
Sylvain Wiltord in his club's 3-0 defeat of theReal Madrid in 2005, is his duel withA.S. Roma 'sAmantino Mancini , who performed 6 step-overs before blasting past the bewildered defender to double Roma's advantage during the UEFA Champions League last 16 round against the French Champions. The eventual 2-0 victory for Roma was Lyon's first defeat at home in the Champions League for 5 years.National team
He has five caps with the France national team. His first selection was on
October 11 ,2003 for a game against Israel.Honours
