Career

Lens

Cavaré is a product of the RC Lens academy. He made his Ligue 2 debut on 17 August 2013 in a 4–1 home win against AJ Auxerre. He came onto the field after 60 minutes for Jean-Philippe Gbamin. He proceeded to make 21 league appearances for Lens in a two-year period, but failed to score for the club.

Stade Rennais

In January 2015, Cavaré agreed to join Rennes at the end of the season. One month later, he suffered a severe ligament injury and was ruled out of action for the rest of the season. In the summer of 2015, he joined up with his new club but continued to suffer from his injury in the early stages of the 2015–16 season.

In July he went on trial to newly promoted Premier League club Huddersfield Town but failed to earn a contract.

Barnsley

On 17 August 2017, Cavaré joined Championship club Barnsley on a two-year deal.[3] He made his debut against Sunderland on 1 January 2018.[4] He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 loss at Aston Villa on 20 January 2018.[5] He scored his second Barnsley goal in a 2–2 draw with Scunthorpe United with a curling right-footed strike into the top corner from 25 yards out, completing a 2–0 comeback from Barnsley.

His contract was extended by Barnsley at the end of the 2018–19 season.[6]

FC Sion

On 17 February 2020, with 4 months left on his contract, Cavaré signed for Swiss side Sion for an undisclosed fee.[7]

International career

Cavaré was born in Guadeloupe, but originally represented the France U20s. He debuted for the Guadeloupe football team in a friendly 2–0 loss to French Guiana on 7 June 2018.[8]
