He spent most of his professional career with Rennes and Lyon,[3] amassing Ligue 1 totals of 426 games and five goals over the course of 16 seasons and winning 12 major titles with the latter, including five national championships.

Club career

Rennes

Born in Doué-la-Fontaine, Maine-et-Loire, Réveillère finished his formation with Stade Rennais FC, making his Ligue 1 debut with the club on 3 February 1998 in a 0–0 away draw against SC Bastia. He spent six years with the team always in the top division, and was also loaned to Valencia CF in La Liga in January 2003.

Lyon

In the 2003 summer Réveillère joined Olympique Lyonnais, scoring one goal in 31 games in his first season to win the first of his consecutive five championships with the side. Safe for the 2008–09 campaign, where he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury and could only feature in 19 league contests, he was always first-choice for L'OL.

Réveillère played in 77 UEFA Champions League matches during his tenure with Lyon (two goals),[3] being present when his team ousted Real Madrid in the 2009–10 edition.[4][5]

Napoli

On 8 November 2013, free agent Réveillère joined Italian side S.S.C. Napoli.[6] He made his Serie A debut on 19 January of the following year by featuring the full 90 minutes in a 2–2 draw at Bologna F.C. 1909, and finished his only season with 18 appearances all competitions comprised.

Sunderland

On 23 October 2014, Réveillère signed with Premier League club Sunderland on a one-year deal.[7]

International career

Réveillère gained his first cap for France on 11 October 2003, in a 3–0 win against Israel for the UEFA Euro 2004 qualifiers. He was picked for the squads that competed at both the 2010 FIFA World Cup and Euro 2012, being an unused squad member in the former and appearing in the 0–2 quarter-final loss to Spain in the latter.[8]

Réveillère scored his only goal for Les Bleus on 7 October 2011, contributing to a 3–0 home triumph over Albania for the Euro 2012 qualifying stage.[9]
