However, on July 1 Faubert was signed by West Ham United for £6.1 million.[3] He suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon during a pre-season friendly on 17 July against Czech side Sigma Olomouc, which was expected to take six months to heal.[4] As part of his comeback Faubert turned out for the Hammers reserves against Aston Villa's reserve team in January 2008.[5] He finally made his first team debut for the Hammers as a late substitute against Fulham at Upton Park on January 12 2008.[6]His first season in English football was marked by continuing injury and he made only 8 appearances in league and FA Cup. He has recently been used in an unfamiliar right back position.
Real Madrid
Faubert signed for Real Madrid in January 2009 on loan until 30 June for a fee of €1.5 million with an option for Real to purchase him for €6 million.[7][8]
International career
Faubert made his debut for the French national team on August 16, 2006, against Bosnia and Herzegovina. He marked his first match by scoring in the final minute of the game to ensure France won 2-1.
