David N’Gog’s Whereabouts Unclear Amid Illness, Reims Concerned
David N’Gog, the 25-year-old striker for Stade de Reims, remains absent from the squad as uncertainty surrounds his current whereabouts amid illness. Officially sidelined due to gastroenteritis, N’Gog has missed two crucial Ligue 1 matches this season, including defeats to Lorient and Marseille.
However, according to reports from L’Equipe, the club is unsure of the precise location of their forward since Saturday. Head coach Jean-Luc Vasseur confirmed on Thursday that N’Gog is “bedridden with a virus,” but was unable to provide further details. “That’s all I know,” Vasseur said, leaving questions about where the player is recovering unanswered.
Speculation suggests that N’Gog may be staying in the Paris region with family, though no official confirmation has come from Reims management. This ambiguity has raised concerns within the club as they prepare for key upcoming fixtures against Metz and Bordeaux.
N’Gog, who has made one league appearance this season scoring once, remains an important figure in Reims’ attacking plans. His absence has been felt in recent matches, and the club is eager for clarity on his condition and return date.
As Reims navigate a challenging phase of the season, the team and coaching staff await news on the striker’s recovery to bolster their offensive options in the weeks ahead.
