Matthieu Saunier (born 7 February 1990 in Hyères) is a French football player who plays for French club Troyes in Ligue 1. He plays as a central defender. Saunier is a French youth international having represented his nation at under-17 and under-20 level. In 2007, he was a part of the under-17 team that played at both the 2007 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship and 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup. He previously played for Bordeaux where he began his professional career. Immediately after signing his professional contract, Saunier was loaned to Championnat National club Rodez.
