Gabonese midfielder Mario Lemina has been sidelined since early December due to physical issues, missing Torino’s Serie A matches following their 2-0 victory over Lazio on December 4th.
Lemina, currently on loan from Marseille, has faced speculation regarding his absence. Some have suggested that he is struggling to secure playing time due to strong competition within the squad. The 23-year-old has refuted these claims, emphasizing that his situation is strictly linked to fitness.
“Many people think that things are going badly at my current club. But really, everything is going really well! I hope to come back very soon,” Lemina shared in a tweet, reassuring fans about his commitment and optimism.
His last Serie A start came on October 28th in a 1-0 defeat to Sassuolo. Despite the extended break from the pitch, Lemina remains focused on returning to action as soon as possible.
Torino and Gabon supporters alike will be eager to see the midfielder regain full fitness and rejoin the team, where his dynamism and versatility could prove crucial in the coming fixtures.
