Biography:
Jean-Joël Perrier-Doumbé (born September 27, 1978 in Paris) is a French-born Cameroonian football player currently playing for Celtic.
Perrier-Doumbé started his career at AJ Auxerre, making over 50 first-team appearances before moving to Rennes in 2004. He quickly became a first-team regular at the Stade de la Route de Lorient, making 27 Ligue 1 appearances matches in the 2005-06 season.
However, the Cameroon international found first team opportunities limited during the first half of the 2006-07 campaign, after missing the opening stages of the season due to an arm injury sustained in a pre-season friendly. The arrival of former Chelsea defender Mario Melchiot provided strong competition for the right-back berth and Perrier-Doumbé was strongly linked with Middlesbrough.
On January 12, 2007, it was reported that Perrier-Doumbé had been on trial with Celtic since January 10, while Premiership side Bolton Wanderers were also credited with an interest. On January 25, 2007, it was confirmed that Perrier-Doumbé would join Celtic, initially on loan until the end of the season, with an option for Celtic to sign him for an additional two years after the completion of the loan.
On arrival at Celtic, Perrier-Doumbé found first team opportunities limited and began as a reserve team player. However, injuries to Mark Wilson and Gary Caldwell gave the Cameroonian a chance and he made his way into the first team, although not until after Celtic had already won the league. He scored the winning goal in the Scottish Cup final against Dunfermline Athletic on the 26th of May 2007. It was his first senior goal.
In July 2007, after his contract with Rennes expired, it was reported that Perrier-Doumbé was in talks with Sheffield United following a recommendation from Gordon Strachan after the Celtic manager had refused to pay a fee for the Cameroon international right back. Celtic were expected to sign him on a three-year deal but, due to a clause in the loan contract, the club would have had to pay £400,000 for the out of contract player who was available on a free transfer to any other club that wished to sign him.
However, after playing for The Blades in a pre-season friendly against Alfreton Town, manager Bryan Robson decided to not to offer him a contract.
