Injury Blow for Kossi Agassa as Reims Goalkeeper Suffers Hamstring Strain
Togolese international Kossi Agassa endured a difficult evening on Saturday as Stade de Reims faced FC Nantes in the third matchday of Ligue 1. The veteran goalkeeper was forced off during the second half due to injury, prompting concern from both fans and staff.
According to head coach Olivier Guégan, Agassa is suffering from a strain in his right hamstring, an issue that led to his substitution. “It’s a hamstring strain on the right leg,” confirmed Guégan post-match, offering little indication of how long his first-choice keeper may be sidelined.
The 37-year-old shot-stopper, who has long been a key figure for Reims, will now undergo further medical tests to determine the severity of the injury. His absence could prove a significant blow for the club as they navigate the early stages of the Ligue 1 campaign.
