As LOSC prepares to challenge Stade Rennais for the twelfth day of Ligue 1, Bruno Génésio can have a smile. As a reminder, despite Lille's very good results in recent weeks, the northern club was facing a major problem with an avalanche of injuries.
So much so that at one point, LOSC, which has Moussa NIakhaté on its shelves, had to do without around ten players simultaneously in the face of unavailability which continued to arise.
The end of the massacre at LOSC
Nabil Bentaleb, Ethan Mbappé and Rémy Cabella, Tiago Santos, Thomas Meunier, Angel Gomes and Osame Sahraoui, Samuel Umtiti and Hakon Haraldsson all missed the last LOSC meetings for various health problems, more or less serious.
But it seems that the gray has decided to give way to the sun in the North. Indeed, several long-time absentees could make their return to the green rectangle against Rennes this Saturday if we are to believe La Voix Du Nord.
Hakon Haraldsson makes his return with LOSC
Indeed, the daily reveals that Thomas Meunier and Ismaily, who returned to the group before the break, could be established this Saturday in the corridors of Bruno Génésio's defense. But they are not the only ones since Hakon Haraldsson is also making his return to the Lille group.
This information was confirmed by Bruno Génésio himself in a pre-match press conference. However, the Icelander should not be started but could be entitled to a few minutes of play to regain sensations before LOSC's trip to Bologna in the Champions League next Wednesday.
Supporter of En Avant de Guingamp, the best of the Breton clubs, I prefer to meet Yannis Salibur, Cristophe Kerbrat or Jeremy Sorbon rather than Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi or Sergio Ramos.
