It’s great news for Alain Traoré and Lorient as the Burkina Faso star is set to make a return to competition this weekend. Traoré had been sidelined due to a thigh injury sustained during the last African Cup of Nations in January. His return is eagerly anticipated, and he is expected to feature for Lorient in their upcoming match against Lille in the French Ligue 1 on Sunday.
Traoré, who is 24 years old, has been a significant presence for Burkina Faso, particularly during the recent CAN where his country reached the final. His inclusion in the Lorient squad for the match against Lille signals his recovery and readiness to contribute to his team’s efforts in the domestic league.
The presence of Traoré in the lineup adds to Lorient’s attacking options, and his return will likely be welcomed by both the club and fans.
