Club career
Gava was born in Montargis, Loiret. He emerged through AS Nancy-Lorraine's youth system, making his professional debuts at age 17. However, he would grow to prominence in the first division at Olympique Lyonnais, being a very valuable offensive unit alongside Florian Maurice.
In 1997, Gava signed - alongside close friend Maurice - with capital side Paris Saint-Germain, scoring seven goals in his first season and helping the club capture both the Cup and League cup that year.[1][2]
After that, he played with AS Monaco FC and Stade Rennais one season apiece, being forced to retire at 30 due to foot ailments; he did amass more than 400 official matches counting both major divisions in France.
International career
Gava collected three caps for France in a one-year span, all in friendlies and as a substitute; the first arrived on 9 October 1996, against Turkey.
