Sébastien Gimenez (born 21 March 1974) is a French football coach and former professional footballer who is a goalkeeping coach for the Monaco under-19 team.
Gimenez mainly played football at the lower level for Castelnau Le Crès and Arles, before moving to Sète in 2005, a club which had recently won promotion to Ligue 2. He made his professional debut for Sète on 13 January 2006, replacing injured starter Olivier Labruna in the 22nd minute of a 2–0 home loss to Lorient.[1] This remained his only professional appearance.[2]
Following his retirement at the end of the 2009–10 season as part of Nîmes, Gimenez remained with Nîmes and becoming goalkeeping coach on Jean-Michel Cavalli's coaching staff.[3] He remained in this position until 2022, where he became goalkeeping coach for the Monaco under-19s.[4]
