Good news for Stade Toulousain: Romain Ntamack is back in training! After a month of champing at the bit following a calf injury, the international fly-half has finally returned to the pitches of Ernest-Wallon. As reported La Dépêche du Midithe prodigal son is aiming for a return to the Top 14 by the end of the month. Enough to bring a smile to the face of Ugo Mola and the supporters.RUGBY. Too fair, Romain Ntamack will not play with the XV of France in November
A hard blow against Clermont
In mid-October, during a match against Clermont, Ntamack injured his right calf, forcing him to limp off the pitch. Verdict: a muscle tear that required three to four weeks of rest. An eternity for a competitor like him.
Cautious, Fabien Galthié had chosen to do without his services for the fall tour. A wise decision which allowed Ntamack to recover without pressure. During this time, the Blues had to cope without their maestro. Which led to the whole saga around the Ramos/Jalibert case.
Smooth return
This Thursday, Romain put his crampons back on. And not just any shoes: personalized shoes in the name of his son Noah, accompanied by the inscription “It's time”, which he shared on Instagram.
For the moment, no high intensity: Ntamack trains individually, history of regaining its support and gradually gaining strength. But its presence on the ground is already a big step forward.
Target: end of November
The Toulouse calendar is ideal for a smooth return. Stade will face Perpignan at home on November 23, then travel to Racing 92 on November 30. Two great opportunities for Ntamack to find the rhythm before switching to European games in the Champions Cup.
His return is highly anticipated, especially with the upcoming deadlines. From now on, Toulouse can breathe and manage the recovery of its opener smoothly. The important thing will be to build momentum until spring.
