Playing career

Born in Paris, Madar began his professional career with Sochaux. He then spent one season with Laval before returning to Sochaux. In 1992, he moved to Cannes before moving to Monaco in 1994. In 1996, he moved to Spain and signed for Deportivo de La Coruña, but after a season below expectations, he had a strong confrontation with the new coach (Carlos Alberto Silva came in summer 1997 to replace John Benjamin Toshack) and Deportivo decided to let him go. After recovering from his injury, Madar left Spain for England where he was signed by then-Everton manager Howard Kendall.[2] In two seasons, he played 19 league games for the club, scoring six goals, including one on his debut against Crystal Palace.[3] In December 1998 Madar moved to Paris Saint-Germain , then in 2001 he transferred to Créteil. Madar retired at the end of the season in 2002.

Madar was picked three times for France and was in the French squad for Euro 96.
