It’s good news for Mongongu and Evian TG as the defender’s injury turns out to be less serious than initially feared. Mongongu, who was forced off during the match against Bordeaux due to a groin injury, underwent examinations on Monday which provided reassuring results. The Congolese international is expected to recover in time for Evian’s upcoming fixture against Nantes on Friday, the opening match of the 27th day of Ligue 1.
Despite the injury scare, Mongongu’s absence is likely to be brief, allowing him to maintain his consistent presence in Evian’s lineup. The 24-year-old defender has been a key figure for Pascal Dupraz’s side, having featured in all of their league matches so far this season. With his recovery on track, Mongongu can look forward to returning to action and contributing to Evian’s campaign in Ligue 1.
