Ligue 1: Jamal Ait Ben Sidelined for Match Against Châteauroux
Midfielder Jamal Ait Ben will miss this weekend’s 15th round Ligue 1 clash as his club prepares to face Châteauroux. The 30-year-old sustained an injury while on international duty with Morocco, having featured in recent friendlies against Benin and Zimbabwe.
Ait Ben, born in France, recently received his first call-up to the Atlas Lions, marking a personal milestone in his career. Unfortunately, his international debut appears to have come at a cost, as the knock now sidelines him at a crucial moment for his club.
Since joining the Burgundian side last July from Sedan, Ait Ben has been a regular presence in midfield, making 12 league appearances this season. He signed a five-year contract upon arrival and has since become a key figure in the team’s setup.
The extent of his injury has not been disclosed, but his absence will be a blow for the squad as they look to maintain momentum in Ligue 1.
