[edit] Biography
He started his career with SM Caen and Troyes AC, before he was brought to AS Monaco in 2001. Rothen was one of the stars of the Monaco side that reached the 2004 final of the Champions League, in May 2004. Along with Monaco teammate Ludovic Giuly, he was touted as the new face of France's forward attack. At his peak, he was called the left-sided David Beckham.
He was a member of the French national squad at Euro 2004, where he made a brief substitute appearance in their defeat by Greece in the quarter-finals. A native of Paris, he fulfilled a childhood dream when he signed for the capital side Paris St-Germain later that summer. Rothen's loss of form since moving from Monaco to PSG meant he was not considered for a place in France's 2006 FIFA World Cup squad.
