His debut in Ligue 1 came as a second-half substitute against Montpellier on 16 October 1999, and during that first season he played 16 league games, as well as six in the UEFA Cup.

Queudrue joined English Premier League club Middlesbrough on loan in October 2001,[13] and the deal was made permanent at the end of the season.

[19] After Birmingham's relegation at the end of the 2007–08 season, co-owner David Sullivan claimed he should have intervened to stop manager Steve Bruce "buying a pile of rubbish"[20] and singled out Queudrue as "a major disappointment".

[21] Sullivan's apology the next day was accepted,[22] but after Queudrue reported back late for pre-season training, he was told he could leave on a free transfer.

[23][24] However, he returned to the team the following season, produced man-of-the-match performances, and in October Sullivan issued a public apology in the match programme.

[25] Voted player of the season both by the fans and by the local newspaper, the Birmingham Mail,[26] Queudrue also received personal message of congratulation from Sullivan via the club website.

[27] In March 2010, Queudrue joined Colchester United of League One on loan for the remainder of the 2009–10 season,[28] but injury restricted him to just three appearances.

[31] However, he chose not to proceed with that move for family reasons, and after several weeks training with his first club, Lens, he rejoined them on 27 September until the end of the season.
