For the crucial encounter against the league leaders, coach Christian Gourcuff will have the valuable return of Vincent Aboubakar leading the attack. Additionally, the presence of Alain Traoré in midfield adds strength to the team. Traoré, who has been plagued by injuries, acknowledges the sacrifices he has made for the team, accepting a more defensive role as chosen by the coach.
Reflecting on his past performances, Traoré recalls his impressive goal-scoring record in previous seasons but admits that this season has been more challenging due to injuries and positional changes. Despite playing in an unfamiliar role as a defensive midfielder, Traoré remains committed to contributing to the team’s success.
However, Traoré acknowledges the difficulties he has faced this season, having played only 13 matches out of 30 due to injuries. Nevertheless, he remains determined to regain his form and make a positive impact for Lorient.
