Cédric Berthelin (born 25 December 1976 in Courrières) is a French football player who presently plays with R.A.E.C. Mons.
Berthelin started his professional career with RC Lens in 1999 and spent two seasons with the sang et or (literally blood and gold) making only occasional first team appearances. During the 2001/2 season he played for ASOA Valence. Berthelin signed for Crystal Palace in January 2003 on a free transfer following a brief period at Luton Town.[1] After 6 months, he was offered a 2 year contact and played regularly for the first XI. An appearance at Liverpool for Crystal Palace in an FA Cup match bought him to national attention as Palace won 2-0 with Berthelin in outstanding form.[2]
He lost his place shortly after Ian Dowie became manager of Crystal Palace and was a non playing member of the side that gained promotion via the 1st Division Play Off Final in 2003/4 season. Berthelin did not make any further first team appearances for Palace during their first year back in the top division of English football and left during the season to join RAEC Mons of Belgian Jupiler League where he was appointed to the management team. He spent three and a half seasons with Mons (seasons 2004/5/6/2007)appearing in ninety league games for them before moving to Verbroedering Dender in the Belgian Top Division aka Jupiler League in January 2008. At the start of the 2009-10 season he moved again to R.E. Mouscron
When R.E. Mouscron collapsed in December 2009, Berthelin found himself without a club. He stopped briefly at his old clubRC Lens where he was employed on a non contractural basis. He now plays for another of his ex clubs RAEC Mons for whom he has now made well over one hundred league appearances.[3][4]
