Considered by many as the greatest footballer of his generation. One of the most gifted and creative players of all time. He played at the attacking midfield position. 3 time FIFA world player of the year, 2 time UEFA player of the year, golden ball winner in 2 world cups are among his many personal achievements. He was a part of the french national team which won the FIFA world cup in 1998 and UEFA Euro 2000. His other medals include UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup, World Club Championship, Spanish Premiera Liga, Copa Del Ray, Serie A among many others.
Yet his last match of his glittering career was his most infamous. Where he headbutted an Italian player in the world cup final only to be ejected for the match.
