Virgile Jacky Marcel Pinson (born 22 February 1996) is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward for Armenian club Noah.
Pinson is a youth product of Le Havre, joining them at 12 and playing with their youth academy for six years.[1]
On 23 April 2018, Pinson joined Reims from Antalyaspor.[2] He made his professional debut with Reims in a 1–0 Ligue 1 loss to HSC Montpellier on 1 September 2018.[3]
Pinson joined Quevilly-Rouen at the end of September 2020, after being released by Reims.[4]
On 7 September 2021, Pinson agreed to a two-year deal at Lokomotiv Sofia.[5]
On 20 September 2022, Pinson agreed to a two-year deal at Botoșani.[6]
On 23 October 2023, Pinson deliberately kicked the ball after a free-kick was given to the opposition to be booked in the 42 minute game against Sepsi Sf. Gheorghe after Drolé, another FC Botosani player that was a substitute for that game found out that Pinson was about to be substituted at half-time. A betting agency in Botosani reported that someone intended on betting 10.000 RON (approx. 2500 EUR) on Pinson being booked during the game.[7]
In the aftermath, Pinson and Drolé have been excluded from the first team.
Born in France, Pinson is of Cameroonian descent.[8]
