Club career

Early years and Nancy

A central defender, Jeanvier began his career in 2000 with hometown club US Clichy-sur-Seine.[3] He moved to L'Entente SSG in 2006 and trained concurrently at Clairefontaine,[4] before joining the academy at Nancy in 2008.[3] Jeanvier progressed into the reserve team and made 54 appearances and scored two goals in the Championnat de France Amateur between 2009 and 2013.[5][6] The appointment of former head of youth Patrick Gabriel as first team manager midway through the 2012–13 Ligue 1 season saw Jeanvier promoted into the first team squad and he made 10 appearances between January and April 2013.[5][7] He refused the offer of a new two-year contract extension and departed the Stade Marcel Picot at the end of the 2012–13 season.[7]

Lille

Jeanvier joined Ligue 1 club Lille on a four-year contract during the 2013 off-season.[7] Behind Simon Kjær, Marko Baša, David Rozehnal and Adama Soumaoro in the central defensive pecking order,[7] he was completely out of favour with manager René Girard,[5] who had replaced Rudi Garcia soon after Jeanvier's arrival at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.[8] He instead played for the reserve team and spent the 2014–15 and 2015–16 seasons on loan at Mouscron-Péruwelz and Red Star respectively.[5][9] He failed to make a first team appearance and left the club in August 2016.[5][10]

Reims

In August 2016, Jeanvier dropped into Ligue 2 to join Reims.[10] He established himself in the starting lineup and was voted into the UNFP Ligue 2 Team of the Year at the end of the 2016–17 and 2017–18 seasons.[11] Jeanvier had a successful 2017–18 season, vice-captaining the team and helping the club to the Ligue 2 championship and promotion to Ligue 1.[12][13] He departed the Stade Auguste-Delaune in July 2018,[12] after making 67 appearances and scoring five goals for the club.[5]

Brentford

On 30 July 2018, Jeanvier moved to England to join Championship club Brentford on a four-year contract, with the option of a further year, for an undisclosed fee, speculated to be £1.8 million.[14][15] He scored a goal in each of his first two appearances for the club, which came in the early rounds of the EFL Cup,[16] but a foot injury suffered in October 2018 ruled him out for two months.[17][18] The unavailability of Chris Mepham and new head coach Thomas Frank's deployment of three centre backs saw Jeanvier win a starting place on his return to fitness in December 2018 and he remained a near-ever present starter until the end of the 2018–19 season.[19][20][21]

International career

Jeanvier was a member of the France U18 team which finished runners-up at the 2010 Copa del Atlántico, but he failed to win a cap.[3][22] He made his debut for Guinea in a 1–0 friendly defeat to Gambia on 7 June 2019 and made one appearance at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.[23]

Personal life

Jeanvier was born in France and is of Guinean and Guadeloupean descent.[24] His father was also a footballer and played for Red Star.[7] He is married to a Guinean woman and has a Guinean passport.[25]
