Senegalese midfielder Habib Diarra is expected to return to the field in a few weeks following a reassuring medical assessment. The RC Strasbourg player sustained a serious injury during Senegal’s World Cup qualifier against Mauritania on June 10.
Diarra was forced off at halftime after a severe tackle by Mauritanian defender Khadim Diaw.
Initial concerns about the extent of the injury were high, but recent medical examinations have provided a more optimistic outlook.
According to L’Équipe, Diarra has been diagnosed with a sprained ankle, with an estimated recovery period of about three weeks.
This development is a significant relief for RC Strasbourg and their manager, Patrick Vieira, who were initially bracing for a potentially lengthy absence.
Diarra, who is a crucial part of Strasbourg’s midfield, is now expected to join the team’s training sessions shortly.
Despite his injury, Diarra has been granted additional rest and is anticipated to be available for the resumption of Alsatian training on June 24.
The club is undoubtedly relieved by the news, given Diarra’s importance to the squad.
His return will be eagerly awaited by both his club and national team, as Diarra has shown immense potential and skill in his performances.
The midfielder’s recovery is crucial for RC Strasbourg as they prepare for the upcoming season, and for Senegal’s continued success in the World Cup qualifiers.
This positive update on Diarra’s health allows both RC Strasbourg and Senegalese fans to look forward to seeing the talented midfielder back in action soon, ready to contribute to his team’s efforts both domestically and internationally.
