Sebastian Chabal, the former France and Sale Sharks forward, has revealed that he cannot remember “a single second of a rugby match I played”.
Chabal, who played for France between 2000 and 2011 and won the Premiership with Sale, revealed he had no recollection of any part of his playing career in an interview on the YouTube channel Legend this week.
“I don’t remember a single second of a rugby match I played,” Chabal said. “I don’t remember a single one of the 62 Marseillaises [French national anthem] I experienced.”
Chabal did not use the word “concussion” in the interview, but went on to add that he did not remember the birth of his daughter.
