O LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne tirou definitivamente a camisa de Charles Kahudi de circulação. O clube confirmou nesta terça-feira que o uniforme do ex-capitão está aposentado, encerrando uma história que começou com a chegada do veterano ala em 2015 e durou até sua saída em 2025, período que cobre o capítulo mais glorioso da história moderna do clube de Lyon.
O ASVEL usou seus canais sociais para divulgar a homenagem, publicando um vídeo curto que mostra o exato momento em que Kahudi descobre a decisão do clube.
Nesse intervalo, ele se tornou o pulso do elenco. Conhecido pela intensidade física que levava à quadra e pela autoridade que exercia no vestiário, virou um rosto familiar muito além da França.
Seu currículo na Euroliga registra 152 partidas, todas com a camisa do ASVEL. O restante da trajetória inclui a Basketball Champions League, a EuroCup e a FIBA Europe Cup, além de passagens anteriores por Le Mans, JDA Dijon, Cholet e ALM Evreux.
Com a braçadeira no braço, o ASVEL conquistou sete troféus nacionais, quatro deles títulos de liga, e firmou seu lugar entre as equipes que disputam a elite europeia ano após ano.
Pela seleção francesa, ele levou o ouro no EuroBasket de 2013 ao lado de Tony Parker, a prata no EuroBasket de 2011 e o bronze na Copa do Mundo da Fiba de 2014 e novamente no EuroBasket de 2015.
Desde o verão passado ele trabalha longe do banco de reservas, de volta ao ASVEL e a Parker na função de assistente de gerente geral.
A cerimônia coroa uma sequência de homenagens e o coloca ao lado de ídolos do clube como Alain Gilles e Amara Sy.
