Gregory Vignal made his breakthrough at Liverpool during the treble campaign of 2000-01.
The left-back collected three winner's medals during his time with the club, as he was an unused substitute in the FA Cup, UEFA Cup and UEFA Super Cup victories in 2001.
He came to Anfield with good pedigree having enjoyed international success during the summer of 2000 when he helped the France U18 team to victory in the European Youth Championship in Germany.
Vignal had made his Reds debut in the FA Cup third-round win over Rotherham United at Anfield in January 2001, after arriving at the club earlier in the season from Montpellier.
The beginning of the end for his time at Anfield came after a broken foot ruled him out for most of the 2001-02 season, and having then been unable to break back into the first team, he ended the 2002-03 campaign on a three-month loan with French side Bastia.
Vignal also spent the whole of the 2003-04 season on loan at La Liga strugglers Espanyol.
He eventually joined Portsmouth after he was released from his Liverpool contract a year early in the summer of 2005.
