He had to leave the match due to a left shoulder issue, leading to an announcement from Rennes that surgery was necessary following subsequent evaluations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In July, he finalized his transfer to Liverpool after the Reds reached a deal with Rennes earlier in the year. The club confirmed that Jacquet had signed a long-term deal, despite his season being impacted by the shoulder injury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nevertheless, Jacquet has continued to demonstrate significant progress and is now included in Zidane\u2019s plans for the French national team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"wedod-2964245659\" class=\"wedod-after-content
