As reported yesterday, Paul Georges Ntep, the versatile midfielder for Stade Rennais, sustained an injury while on duty with the France Espoirs selection last Tuesday. It has been confirmed that he suffered a tear in his adductor muscles, necessitating a significant period of recovery.
Recent updates reveal the expected duration of Ntep’s absence from the pitch. According to reports from Ouest-France, cited by Eurosport, the former Auxerre player is projected to be sidelined for a period of 6 to 8 weeks. This news comes as a setback for the Breton team, particularly as they strive to regain momentum in the championship.
Following a convincing 3-0 victory over Nantes, Rennes experienced a setback with a disappointing 0-2 defeat at home against Guingamp last weekend. The absence of Ntep will undoubtedly pose a challenge for the team as they seek to navigate through the upcoming fixtures without one of their key players.
This injury update underscores the importance of depth and resilience within the squad as Rennes aims to maintain their competitive edge in the league.
