Hard blow for the people of Bordeaux! The Unionists will have to do without Matthieu Jalibert who is out for several weeks.
Bad weather for the Bordeaux-Bègles Union… If Matthieu Jalibert was on vacation near Cannes last week as he showed on his social networks, the Bordeaux player was not back on the pitch this week. For good reason, according to South Westthe UBB opener is currently injured. He suffers from a lesion of the femoral muscle of the left thigh according to our colleagues. He is expected to be out until mid-January. He would therefore miss the trip to Castres, the reception in Toulon and the trip to the Stade Français. The Girondins staff hope for his return to challenge Exter in the Champions Cup on January 11.
