Lille Midfielder Rémy Cabella Criticizes Best Goalkeeper Choice in Ligue 1 Awards

Rémy Cabella (34), Lille midfielder, deplores the votes of the players who offered the title of best goalkeeper in Ligue 1 to Parisian Gianluigi Donnarumma. His partner Lucas Chevalier deserved it more, according to him.

The list of UNFP 2023-2024 trophies makes some people cringe. Including those of Rémy Cabella (34 years old). The Lille attacking midfielder does not understand the choice to award the title of best goalkeeper of the season in Ligue 1 to Gianluigi Donnarumma (PSG) who deserved it less, according to him, than his club partner, Lucas Chevalier (22 years old). ).

“Stop judging based on the club”

“So Ligue 1 players don’t put Lucas Chevalier as the best goalkeeper…”, wonders the French international (4 caps) in an Instagram story. “We haven’t seen the same championship I think, he deserves to win 100 times! Stop judging based on the club because even Bizot had a better season but he plays in Brest… so the players don’t calculate !”

Individual trophies are awarded after the votes of the players who had already determined the nominees for each category. This had also provoked some discussions, notably on the presence of Eliesse Ben Seghir (Monaco) in the category of best Espoir despite twelve short matches played (the trophy was finally won by the Parisian Warren Zaire-Emery). Monday, Donnarumma won the second title of best goalkeeper in L1 after that gleaned in 2021-2022. The Italian leads the second defense of the championship tied… with Lille (32 goals conceded) behind Nice (25).

Lucas Chevalier’s season is over since the goalkeeper injured his knee on Sunday in Nantes (1-2). He suffers from a meniscus injury and will undergo an operation this Tuesday, which makes his participation in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with the French Olympic football team uncertain. “I have no information on his convalescence,” confided Jérémie Janot, the goalkeeper coach of the French Olympic team, on the sidelines of the UNFP Trophies. “But we’re not too worried. We had planned a plan A, a plan B, a plan C. We’ll let you know.”
