METZ left-back Manuel Cabit was rushed to hospital with serious injuries after a car crash in northern France on Sunday.
Cabit, 26, was in a car with teammate Kevin N’Doram, 23, who escaped unharmed.
Ligue 1 Metz released a statement today confirming the man from Martinique is in a serious condition at the University Hospital of Reims.
The incident happened on the A4 near Metz in north east France.
But thankfully, his injuries are not life threatening.
Metz’s statement read: “N’Doram, injured, was able to leave hospital quickly. At the same time shocked by the accident – he will be resting for a few days.
“Manuel Cabit, unfortunately, was seriously injured.
“He is currently at CHU hospital in Reims.
“His condition is not life-threatening. His family and those close to him are around him.
“His team, coaches and all at FC Metz are giving him their intense support in these difficult moments and wish a speedy recovery.”
Cabit joined the French side in the summer from Ajaccio and has made just three appearances since.
And defensive midfielder N’Doram is on loan from Monaco.
The pair both played in Metz’s 2-2 draw with Montpellier on Saturday which left them 19th in the table.
