Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, with a Master's degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.
Absent from the field for more than a year and a half, Presnel Kimpembe has appeared twice in Luis Enrique's group in recent weeks, without however returning to competition. A very worrying situation for the defender trained at PSG, but according to Florent Balmont, the 2018 world champion will come back stronger.
Back in the group PSG against Toulouse then the Bayern Munich, Presnel Kimpembe was however absent against the FC Nantes. It must be said that Luis Enrique does not want to take any risks with a player who has not played since March 26, 2023, more than a year and a half. However, Florent Balmont who, victim of a ruptured Achilles tendon at the age of 38, had still played a season and a half after his return from injury, is quite optimistic for a return to form for the player trained in PSG.
Balmont is optimistic for Kimpembe
« The head is 50% of the way back. Two years, it's true, it's a long time. But it is also in these moments, when we are far away, on the sidelines, that we realize what a huge opportunity it is to be a footballer. », he assures in the columns of Parisian.
“Kimpembe can even come back even stronger than before”
And while Florent Balmont was 38 years old when he suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon, he believes that Presnel Kimpembewho is only 29 years old, can come back very strong: “ So I tell myself that at his age, 29, with the rage and hunger he must have, Presnel Kimpembe can even come back even stronger than before. »
