Biography

Born in Grosseto, Tuscany, Blanchard started his career at his hometown club Sauro Rispescia (of Rispescia frazione). On 30 August 2005 he was signed by Serie A team Siena, which is also a Tuscan team. He played for its Berretti team[1] (B team of under-20 age group or U-18 team). In the next season he left for Poggibonsi, but in January 2007 left for Serie D team San Gimignano; the team was relegated to Eccellenza Tuscany at the end of season. Blanchard was promoted to the Primavera under-20 team of Siena in 2007–08 season.[2][3]

In 2008 he left for Valle del Giovenco, his first team outside Tuscany, where he spent 1½ seasons.[4][5][6] At the end of the 2010 winter (January) transfer window, he left for Pergocrema, with Fabrizio Di Bella moving in the opposite direction in a temporary deal.[7] He played both legs of the relegation "play-out".[8][9]

In July 2010 he left for Pavia.[10][11][12] He was a call-up to Siena's pre-season camp in 2011.[13] He played a few friendlies[14][15][16] before he left the club on 20 July.[17][18]

On 9 August 2012 he left for Frosinone.[19][20] On 19 June 2013 Frosinone bought Blanchard's registration rights definitively for a peppercorn fee of €1,000.[21][22]

On 23 September 2015, Blanchard made Frosinone club history by scoring the equalizing goal in the closing minute of stoppage time in a 1–1 draw over Serie A giants, Juventus. This was Frosinone's first historical Serie A point.[23] Blanchard also revealed it was "an emotional moment" especially since he declared to have been a Juventus fan for a long time.[24]
