The Barcelona star has earned more than 30 caps with the French national team, having made his international debut in 2004 in the friendly against Bosnia-Herzegovina. Despite being a surprise inclusion for the 2006 Wold Cup, Abidal played every minute of the tournament for France, with the exception of the match against Togo, from which he was suspended after earning two yellow cards over the previous two games. The 28-year-old made his name in Ligue 1 with Monaco, which earned him a move to Lille, before moving to Lyon in June 2004. The left-back signed for Barcelona in June 2007, after repeatedly stating that he would not return to training if he did not get the move.
