FC Metz central defender Sadibou Sané has shared a heartfelt message with fans and teammates after suffering an injury during his side’s recent Ligue 2 BKT fixture against Martigues on April 11.
The 25-year-old, who has been a regular fixture in Metz’s backline this season with 25 league appearances, took to social media to address his absence and offer words of encouragement to his fellow players as the team approaches the final stretch of the campaign.
Sané, who hails from Metz, expressed disappointment at being sidelined at such a crucial point in the season, but reassured supporters that his rehabilitation has already begun and that he remains focused on a return to fitness.
“It’s difficult to have to leave the team with just a few games left in the championship, especially because of a minor injury that has kept me off the pitch for three games,” the defender wrote.
“All my thoughts go out to my teammates and the entire staff. Have a good game! Thank you for all your messages of encouragement. The good news is that I’m gradually starting my rehabilitation.”
The injury, though described by Sané as minor, has kept him out of action for the last few matches, depriving the club of a key presence in defence.
Metz, aiming to finish their season strongly, will be hoping for his swift return as they pursue their objectives in the final rounds of Ligue 2.
Throughout the current campaign, Sané has been a dependable and consistent performer for the club. His contributions at the heart of the defence have played a vital role in Metz’s stability, and his absence has certainly been felt in recent outings.
Sané’s message struck a balance between optimism and realism, acknowledging the frustration of being out during a decisive period while also emphasizing his determination to return stronger.
His words were met with an outpouring of support from Metz fans, who responded across social media platforms with messages of encouragement and appreciation for his dedication.
The club has not issued an official statement regarding a precise return date, but the player’s update suggests a potential comeback could be on the horizon, provided his recovery continues to progress smoothly.
Sané’s leadership and presence on and off the pitch have made him a respected figure among the squad and supporters.
His proactive communication and gratitude towards the fanbase have further strengthened the connection between player and community.
As Metz push forward in the final weeks of the Ligue 2 season, the prospect of Sané’s return could provide a timely boost.
In the meantime, the team will look to maintain their defensive resilience in his absence while the player focuses on completing his rehabilitation.
With his recovery underway and the support of teammates and fans behind him, Sadibou Sané remains a key figure in Metz’s ongoing campaign and a symbol of the club’s fighting spirit.
