Born in Toulouse, Guillaume Restes joined the Toulouse FC academy as a six years old,[3] from the club of the Montaudran suburb.[4]

He signed his first professional contract with the club on the summer 2021.[3][4][5] His promising performances with the youth team and the National 3 reserve of Toulouse at a young age soon earned him comparisons to former Toulouse player Alban Lafont.[6]

During the 2023 pre-season, despite the arrival of LaLiga2 champion Álex Domínguez and the initial announcement of Coupe de France winner Kjetil Haug as the number 1 goalkeeper,[7] Restes established himself as a potential starter for his club after the departure of Maxime Dupé, playing the entirety of the last summer friendly, a 2–1 home win against Mourinho's AS Roma.[3][8]

Restes made his professional debut for Toulouse on the 13 August 2023, playing the full 90 minutes of a 2–1 away Ligue 1 win to Nantes,[9] the young goalkeeper earning praises for his decisive performance.[10][11][12]

International career
