Gaëtan Huard (born 12 January 1962) is a French retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Football career
Born in Montargis, Loiret, Huard played 357 Ligue 1 matches for RC Lens, FC Girondins de Bordeaux and Olympique de Marseille, winning the 1989 and 1990 national championships with the latter. During the 1992–93 season, spent with the second club who finished third, he had a run of 1,176 minutes (over 13 games) without conceding a goal.[1]
Huard helped Bordeaux reach the 1996 UEFA Cup final, lost to FC Bayern Munich. In the 1996–97 campaign the 34-year-old had an abroad stint, being backup at modest Hércules CF – which eventually suffered relegation from La Liga – and subsequently retiring from professional football.
Afterwards, Huard worked several years as a sports consultant for Canal+.
