Lamine Camara has provided positive updates regarding his condition after being forced off due to injury during AS Monaco’s 4-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night in Ligue 1.
The Senegalese midfielder, who has been pivotal to Monaco’s campaign, raised concerns among fans when he limped off in the high-profile encounter.
However, just days ahead of the club’s Coupe de France round of 32 match against Union Saint-Jean FC on Sunday afternoon, the 20-year-old has eased fears about his fitness.
Speaking at a press conference on Saturday, Camara, who was recently named Africa’s Best Young Player of the Year, sounded optimistic about his recovery.
“I feel better. There’s still a bit of pain, but I think I’ll be ready by Sunday. It was just a knock,” said the former Génération Foot talent, downplaying the severity of the incident.
Camara’s reassuring words will come as a relief to Monaco supporters and head coach Adi Hütter, who will likely rely on the energetic midfielder to anchor his side as they chase success in the domestic cup competition.
Despite the setback in midweek, the young Senegalese star remains a key figure for AS Monaco, and his quick recovery could prove crucial as the team continues to navigate a packed fixture schedule.
For now, it appears Camara’s injury is more of a minor scare than a significant concern.
