[edit] Club career

Zebina began his career with Cannes in the French Championnat National in 1996. He then moved to Cagliari in 1998, and on to AS Roma in 2000 in co-ownership deal, for 9.5 billion Italian lire,[2][3] where he won the Scudetto in 2001. Roma bought him outright in July 2001.[4]

[edit] Juventus

Zebina came to Juventus with coach Fabio Capello at the start of the 2004–05 season on free transfer.[5]

During the career with Juventus, Zebina was criticized for his instability a numbers of times but after he followed Juventus relegated to Serie B in 2006, he still occasionally played as one of the starting XI. After the 2006 Italian football scandal, Juventus sold its starting right back Gianluca Zambrotta to FC Barcelona and failed to find a replacement for him.

Primary a backup player, Zebina also occasionally played in the full-back position and Zambrotta on the another flank during the 2005-06 season under Capello, as Zambrotta replaced Giorgio Chiellini as left back.

He signed a new 4-year deal right after the Juventus won Serie B champion and promoted back to Serie A.[6]

He was injured in at the start of 2008-09 season and ruled him out half of the season.[7] Zdeněk Grygera replaced him as right back but also not favoured by fans, in 2007-08 season, Zebina also competed with Grygera for the starting place.

In 2009-10 season, Zebina wore number 15 instead of number 5, following former captain Fabio Cannavaro's return to the club. He lost his starting place to Martín Cáceres that season, despite Cáceres was also criticized for his instability. After the injury of Cáceres, Zebina returned to starting XI, but Juventus also faced a landslide slip on their result, starting from shocking exit from 2009–10 UEFA Europa League by losing to Fulham. Zebina also received a red card on final minutes (and suspended 2 matches).[8] Zebina remained in starting XI ahead Cáceres despite Cáceres was recovered from injury. That season Juventus finished as the 7th and numbers of players were sold or their contract were not renewed, including Cannavaro.

At the end of season Juventus decided not to buy Cáceres outright, but signed Marco Motta from Udinese on loan as new right back. In although he was included in Juventus's 25-men squad list A for 2010–11 UEFA Europa League playoffs round (he was excluded in qualifying round[9]), Juventus was had to include him in order to let Zebina served the ban he received last season.[10] He also not attended the pre-season camp as he had a international duty which delayed his vacation.[11][12]

Follow Motta quickly became the starting right back for Juventus in the first 4 matches of the season in Europa League, Zebina was not call-up to the Serie A first round of the season.[13]

On the last day of transfer windows, his contract was mutually terminated.[14] On the same day Juve also released Mauro Camoranesi and David Trezeguet few days before.

[edit] Brescia

On the same day he was released, he signed a 2-year contract with Serie A newcomer Brescia.[15]

On 8 July 2011 he mutually terminated his contract.[16]

[edit] International career

Despite being a regular during his time at Roma and Juventus, he has earned only one cap for France; on 9 February 2005 in a 1–1 draw against Sweden. Zebina remained in Jacques Santini's plans throughout his tenure. However, after Santini departed the national side, Zebina was never called up for France again after falling out of favour with new coach Raymond Domenech.
