Adel Mahamoud, FC Nantes’ talented Comorian striker, is on track for an earlier-than-expected comeback following a devastating ACL injury suffered in a preseason friendly against Stade Lavallois.
Initially sidelined until March 2025, the 22-year-old’s recovery has progressed remarkably well, fueling hopes of his return as early as February.
Mahamoud’s injury, sustained on August 3, 2024, dealt a blow to both the player and FCN’s campaign. Substituted in for Moses Simon during the match, Mahamoud was forced off shortly after, with scans confirming a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament. However, his determination and focus on rehabilitation have accelerated his recovery.
Recent updates from Mahamoud on social media show him engaging in light training sessions, rekindling optimism among fans and teammates alike. Sharing a snapshot alongside teammate Moses Simon, Mahamoud’s commitment to his recovery journey is evident.
While team doctors maintain a cautious March timeline, whispers of a February return have invigorated FC Nantes supporters, who eagerly await the return of their promising forward.
