Club career

Toulouse

Cafaro is a youth exponent from Toulouse. He made his Ligue 1 debut on 10 September 2015 against SC Bastia.[2] He was released from the club on 3 April 2017 with Odsonne Édouard due to inappropriate behavior outside the club which consisted of shooting a passer-by with an airsoft gun.[3] He later admitted that he was the one that shot the gun.[4] On 13 June, the Toulouse Prosecutor asked that Édouard be charged with a four months suspended prison sentence and a €6,000 fine for his involvement in the incident. Édouard assured that Cafaro was the author of the shot while Cafaro then claimed to have not been in the car at the time of the shooting.[5]

Cafaro helped Stade de Reims win the 2017–18 Ligue 2, helping promote them to the Ligue 1 for the 2018–19 season.[6]
