At just 30 years old Jimmy Cabot he is forced to retreat. The Lens midfielder had been injured since October 2022, when he suffered a cruciate ligament rupture. From that moment the player never found the pitch again and so, eleven years after his professional debut, he decided to hang up his boots. Cabot, in addition to that of Lens, also wore the shirts of Troyes, Lorient and Angers.
Below is the official statement from Lens: “Combative and persevering like his state of mind on the pitch, Jimmy Cabot has given up nothing to try to recover from the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee contracted in October 2022. But unfortunately the player was forced to end his career at just 30 years old. Saluting his dedication and exemplary character, the club will offer him the opportunity to set foot on the Bollaert-Delelis pitch one last time. Thus, Jimmy Cabot will give the dummy kick-off to the Coupe de France match against Paris Saint-Germain, this Sunday (21).”
