Seydou Doumbia recently made a successful return to competition after being sidelined since last August due to a lumbar disc fracture. The Ivorian striker expressed his philosophical approach to the injury, acknowledging the disappointment and frustration but staying positive with the support of his loved ones and agent Jean-Bernard Beytrison. Doumbia emphasized that the setback made him stronger.
Looking ahead to the current season, Doumbia set a clear goal of finishing as the top scorer in the Russian championship, a feat he achieved in the previous season. Despite being 10 goals behind the current top scorer with 8 matches left, Doumbia is determined to do his best for his team, expressing confidence that the goals will come naturally.
