'''Mikaël Samy Silvestre''' (born [[9 August]] [[1977]] in [[Chambray-lès-Tours]]) is a [[France|French]] [[association football|football]] [[Defender (association football)|defender]]. He currently plays for [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] and the [[France national football team|French national team]].


* [[Alberto Calderón]], Argentine mathematician
==Club career==
* [[Felipe Calderón]], President of Mexico
===Early career===
* [[Felipe G. Calderón]], Filipino constitutionalist
Silvestre began his career with the French club [[Rennes F.C.|Rennes]] in the 1995/96 season. His time at the club helped build his reputation, and in the 1997/98 season was signed by [[F.C. Internazionale Milano|Internazionale]]. He made 18 league appearances for Inter, as well as 6 European Cup games. Silvestre signed for Manchester United on [[September 10]], [[1999]] for £3.5 million.
* [[Francisco García Calderón|Francisco García Calderón Landa]], President of Peru in 1881

* [[Francisco García Calderón Rey]], Peruvian writer and diplomat, representative at the Evian Conference in 1938
Silvestre is adept as both a centre-back and a left full-back, though he has stated that he prefers playing in the centre.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/3161475.stm BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | Man Utd | Silvestre sweet on prospects<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> Silvestre's most positive attribute is his pace, and he often sets up scoring opportunities. He is also noted for his crossing and tackling abilities.
* [[Iván Calderón (boxer)]], Puerto Rican boxer

* [[Iván Calderón (baseball)]], Puerto Rican baseball player
===Manchester United===
* [[Jorge Calderón]], long-time musical collaborator with [[Warren Zevon]]
He made his debut against [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]] at Anfield in 1999. His first season at Manchester United was not exceptional replacing an injured [[Ronny Johnsen]] in the centre with [[Jaap Stam]]; he appeared to struggle initially to adapt to the English league. By the 2001/2002 season, however, Silvestre had established himself in defence ahead of the veteran [[Denis Irwin]], and was proving to be adept both in defence and getting forward. He set up numerous goals for [[Ruud van Nistelrooy]], notably away to [[Deportivo de La Coruña]] in a 2&ndash;0 towards the end of the season. There was criticism put his way after the [[Bayer 04 Leverkusen]] game where he was largely blamed for the late equaliser in the 1&ndash;1 draw, but this typified Manchester United's season as a whole, and he was one of their better performers.
* [[José Calderón]], Spanish basketball player, currently of the NBA Toronto Raptors

* [[José Luis Calderón]], Argentine footballer
During the next season he carried on initially where he left off at the left of Manchester United's back four, but following injury to [[Rio Ferdinand]] and the poor performance of an aging [[Laurent Blanc]], he was switched to his favoured position of central defence. This first happened at half-time in the [[UEFA Champions League]] match away in Basel when the team were 1&ndash;0 down and struggling with a young [[John O'Shea]] looking shaky at the heart of the defence. Silvestre and O'Shea were switched for the second half and the team immediately looked more solid defensively. From this point Silvestre forged a successful partnership mid-season with [[Wes Brown]] at the heart of the defence until Ferdinand's return, looking calm and assured, using his pace to good effect, whilst continuing to provide goals with his accurate diagonal balls.

He continued in this role the following season where he and Ferdinand excelled as a pair and after half a season were being touted as the best central defensive pairing the club had seen since [[Steve Bruce]] and [[Gary Pallister]].{{Fact|date=July 2008}} However, this was cut short following Ferdinand's eight month ban for missing a drug test. In the latter half of this season when being paired with an unfit Wes Brown, Manchester United's defence proved to be rather less secure and both Brown and Silvestre were at fault for numerous goals and despite winning the [[FA Cup]] with a 3&ndash;0 victory over [[Millwall F.C.|Millwall]], this uncertainty at the heart of the defence was to continue into the start of the 2004&ndash;05 season.

* [[Oscar Calderón]], chief of Philippine National Police
Competition for places grew significantly during the January transfer window in 2006 with the signings of [[Nemanja Vidić]] and [[Patrice Evra]]. Although both struggled to adapt initially, both have since gone on to establish themselves as firm fan favourites and key members of the Manchester United squad. Following the partnership of Vidić and Ferdinand at the heart of the defence, and Evra's holding of the left-back position, Silvestre has found it more difficult to secure a place in the Manchester United starting line-up. However, at the end of 2005&ndash;06 he did show good form, particularly in the 2-0 victory over [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] in the left-back role where he delivered an excellent cross for [[Wayne Rooney]] to score the opening goal of the match from. He admits that he was given the option to leave during the January transfer window during 2006, with an opportunity to join former Liverpool manager [[Gérard Houllier]] at [[Olympique Lyonnais|Lyon]]. He did however decide to stay and fight for his place at United.

* [[Mercedes Calderón]], Cuban volleyball player
On [[August 11]], [[2006]], his loyalty to the club was rewarded with a new contract extending his stay at the club until at least 2009. [[Alex Ferguson]] commented that:
* [[Paco Calderón]], Mexican political cartoonist
"Mikael has been an important member of the squad for seven years now. His experience at the Club will help the younger players as they develop and he has a central role to play in the first team."
* [[Pedro Calderón de la Barca]], Spanish dramatist

* [[Rafael Ángel Calderón]], Father and son Costa Rican presidents
He started the 2006-07 season against [[Watford F.C.|Watford]], scoring a goal, his first away goal for United, to give United the lead, and then 15 minutes later making a defensive error to aid their equaliser. He was starting to reassert himself in the left-back role when he broke a [[metatarsal]] in a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal. After recovering and playing several games, he dislocated his shoulder in a Champions League win against [[Lille OSC]], meaning he was unable to play for the rest of the season. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/6429435.stm]. He did however win his fourth Premier League winners medal that season as United won the league for the first time since 2003.

* [[Ramón Calderón]], Real Madrid president
Silvestre revealed that in the summer of 2007 he turned down the opportunity to sign for [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]], because he refused to play in the same side as [[Joey Barton]] (who attacked Silvestre's close friend [[Ousmane Dabo]]).<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/sport/football.html?in_article_id=474948&in_page_id=1779|date=[[2007-08-12]] |accessdate=2007-07-11 |title=Silvestre turned down Newcastle to avoid Barton |publisher=Daily Mail}}</ref>

With [[Gabriel Heinze]] moving to [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]], Silvestre was set to battle Evra for the starting left back spot in the first eleven at Manchester United in the 2007&ndash;08 season. On [[September 15]], however, Silvestre was stretchered off with knee ligament damage. On [[16 September]], it was revealed that Silvestre had been ruled out for the rest of the season. On [[September 24]], Ferguson revealed that: "I'm sure Mikael will be back in March," he also said. "We had him operated on in France last week and it all went well. It was pleasing to see there was no further damage other than the cruciate ligament. That's a big bonus because sometimes there can be cartilage problems that also come along."

On [[20 March]], Silvestre made his comeback in the Manchester United reserves in a 4-1 win over [[Manchester City F.C.|Manchester City]].<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_3329154,00.html| title=Neville steps up comeback| date=2008-03-20| accessdate=2008-07-04| publisher=Sky Sports}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.manutd.com/default.sps?pagegid={B4CEE8FA-9A47-47BC-B069-3F7A2F35DB70}&newsid=542881| title=Reserves: United 4 City 1| date=2008-03-20| accessdate=2008-07-04| publisher=ManUtd.com| author=Steve Bartram}}</ref>

On [[9 April]], [[2008]], Silvestre made his first start after 7 months in a Champions League quarter-final match versus [[A.S. Roma]].<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.manutd.com/default.sps?pagegid={B4CEE8FA-9A47-47BC-B069-3F7A2F35DB70}&newsid=548105| title=Report: United 1 Roma 0| date=2008-04-09| accessdate=2008-07-04| publisher=ManUtd.com| author=Gemma Thompson}}</ref>

===Arsenal===
A transfer to [[FC Girondins de Bordeaux|Bordeaux]] was mooted in the summer of 2008. However, it is believed that Silvestre turned the transfer down to see out the remaining year of his contract, and potentially receive a testimonial match at the end of the 2008–09 season.<ref>[http://www.manutd.co.uk/default.sps?pagegid=%7BB4CEE8FA%2D9A47%2D47BC%2DB069%2D3F7A2F35DB70%7D&newsid=6612901 Silvestre set to stay]</ref> On [[19 August]] [[2008]], it was suggested that Silvestre had backed out of a move to [[Manchester City F.C.|Manchester City]], after hearing that [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] were interested in signing him.<ref>{{cite news |title=Arsenal hijack Silvestre move |url=http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/arsenal-hijack-silvestre-move-903191.html |publisher=The Independent |date=[[2008-08-20]] |accessdate=2008-08-20 }}</ref>

The transfer to Arsenal was completed for an undisclosed fee on [[20 August]] [[2008]], with Silvestre signing a two-year contract. The transfer makes Silvestre the first player to transfer directly between Manchester United and Arsenal since [[Viv Anderson]] in 1987. He will wear the number 18 shirt, last worn by [[Pascal Cygan]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Arsenal sign Man Utd's Silvestre |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/a/arsenal/7573520.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |date=[[2008-08-20]] |accessdate=2008-08-20 }}</ref>

==International career==
He earned his first senior cap for [[France national football team|France]] on [[February 27]] [[2001]] in a friendly against [[Germany national football team|Germany]] that ended in a 1-0 win. He won the [[Confederations Cup]] both in [[2001 Confederations Cup|2001]] and [[2003 Confederations Cup|2003]] with France. However, he received criticism for his performance in [[Euro 2004]], where he gave away penalties to both [[England national football team|England]] and [[Croatia national football team|Croatia]], before France were knocked out by [[Greece national football team|Greece]] in the quarter-finals. Previously he was a member of French junior team at the 1997 [[FIFA World Youth Championship]]. He also played one game in the French squad that made the [[2006 FIFA World Cup]] final.

==Personal==
He is married to Séverine and has a daughter named Cléo.<ref>{{cite news |title=Manchester United: The players |url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/may/20/championsleague.manchesterunited |publisher=The Guardian |date=[[2008-05-20]] |accessdate=2008-08-20 }}</ref>
