Frédéric Piquionne (born December 8, 1978 in Nouméa, New Caledonia) is a French football player who plays in the forward position, currently for AS Monaco in French Ligue 1.

This "International Espoir" previously played for Golden Star (division of honor in Martinique), Nîmes Olympique (second division, 2000-2001) and Rennes (first division, 2001-2004).

He is 1,88m tall, weighs 77kg and wears the number 9 shirt. His qualities are his speed and technique, but positioning, heading and tactical sense are his weak points.

In total, he has played 138 matches in the first division and scored 33 goals. This season, he played 17 matches as a holder and 1 as a substitute, scored 6 goals, was on the park for a period of 1407 minutes, and had 1 booking.

Career

Regarding his career, Frédéric Piquionne used to play in the suburbs of Paris, at Charenton and Paris FC, then he went to Martinique and rejoined metropolitan France in 2000 to play for Nîmes Olympique, where he played a few matches in the second division.

He was soon spotted by Rennes. The first time he played in the French first division was the 28th of July 2001 in the match Rennes-Auxerres (0-5). In his first season in the first division, Piqionne scored 3 goals in 20 matches. In his second season (2002-2003), he scored 10 goals under the coaching of Vahid Halilhodzic. But a new coach, Laszlo Bölöni, arrived, and the rapport between them wasn't good, and nor with his fellow-team-member Alexander Frei. So the season 2003-2004 wasn't a good one for him.

When Saint-Etienne were interested in him, he didn't have any hesitation and accepted the chance to play for this new team. He has been there for two years and now, he is well liked by the coach Elie Baup, the other players, and the supporters.

On February 3, 2007 he played his first Ligue 1 match for Monaco against Auxerre

Season Club Division Matches Goals
2000-2001 Nîmes 2 8 3
2001-2002 Rennes 1 20 3
2002-2003 Rennes 1 31 12
2003-2004 Rennes 1 32 5

International career

Instead of representing FIFA member New Caledonia in Oceania, Piquionne represented the Martinique national football team in Caribbean Sea at the 2003 CONCACAF Gold Cup.

Martinique is not a member of FIFA, so he is eligible to play for Les Bleus.

He was surprisingly called up to the squad against Lithuania, 24 March, 2007, Euro 2008 Qualifying, but did not play. He made his international debut for the France national football team in a friendly against Austria on 28 March 2007.
