Franck Rolling (born August 23, 1968 in Colmar) is a French former football defender.
Rolling began his career as an attacking player at RC Strasbourg, making his debut in a game against Sporting Club Toulon on October 15th 1988.[1] However Rolling did not manage to carve out a regular first team place and so dropped down a division in 1992 to join Pau FC. He moved to Scotland with Ayr United F.C. in 1994 and was spottred there by Leicester City F.C. who brought him to England the following year for a fee of £100,000. Rolling found it hard to get a spot in the Foxes first team, particularly after their promotion to the Premier League. He departed Filbert Street in 1997 to join A.F.C. Bournemouth and made something of a name for himself at the club by scoring the aggregate winning goal in the Auto Windscreens Shield Southern Final second leg, booking the club a place at the Wembley showpiece.[2]
After his release from Bournemouth, Rolling was briefly on the books of Gillingham F.C. and Wycombe Wanderers F.C., before leaving England to try his luck with SK Vorwärts Steyr of Austria and Veria F.C. of Greece. He returned to France in 2001 to play for Jura Sud Lavans, retiring the following year.
