Former French Player Jimmy Cabot Criticizes Pogba’s “Best Comeback” Award

Former French footballer Jimmy Cabot has strongly criticized the decision to award Paul Pogba the “Best Comeback” prize at the Globe Soccer Awards.

Cabot contrasted Pogba’s situation with other players who, in his view, demonstrated far more meaningful comebacks:

“Matthieu Udol — four cruciate ligament injuries, and he’s back as a starter in a Ligue 1 first team by the winter break with RC Lens.

Nabil Bentaleb — cardiac arrest, several months out, returns and scores the winning goal for Lille.

Pogba suspended for doping: they give him a trophy.”

His comments have sparked debate about what truly defines a “comeback” in modern football.
