David Sergio Trezeguet (French pronunciation: born 15 October 1977 in Rouen) is a French-Argentine football striker, currently playing for Juventus of the Italian Serie A and formerly for the French national team. Trezeguet and Thierry Henry of FC Barcelona are good friends. Their friendship started while they were both playing for AS Monaco. In an interview, David stated that Thierry was like a big brother to him when they were teammates. David and his wife Béatrice have two children, Aaron (born on 18 May 2000) and Noraan (born on 28 May 2008).

At club level, Trezeguet has played for Club Atlético Platense in Argentina (1994), AS Monaco FC in France (1995-2000), and Juventus in Italy (since 2000). On 16 September 2006, before Juventus' league match against Vicenza, Trezeguet was awarded a commemorative plate in recognition of his 125 career goals. After the match, his tally came to 128 goals making him the highest scoring foreigner in Juventus history. He is currently the fifth highest scorer for Juventus, with 161 goals as of 1 March 2008, six goals behind Omar Sivori. In 1997, Trezeguet scored the fastest goal ever in terms of velocity in UEFA Champions League history in a quarter-final match against Manchester United. The shot that resulted in a goal was clocked at 97.76 mp/h (157.33 km/h). He also scored the 3000th goal in UEFA Champions League history by netting against Olympiacos in 2004. In the 2003 UEFA Champions League Final, Trezeguet was one of the three Juventus players to have their penalty saved by A.C. Milan keeper Dida in penalties, who appeared to come off his line on each occasion.

Trezeguet caused controversy in Juventus' final match of the 2006–07 season against Spezia by making a gesture towards the club president, making a number 15 with his fingers – the number of goals he scored throughout the Serie B season – and then a gesture which, in Italian, means “I’m out of here.”[citation needed] However, Juventus announced on 25 June 2007, that Trezeguet had renewed his contract until 2011. During the 2007–08 season, Trezeguet scored twenty goals in the league, second only to teammate Alessandro Del Piero for Serie A scoring honors.
