In recent days in training, we had not seen the right back of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Youssouf
Assogba. While we thought he was preserved for the Coupe de France match against CMO Bassens, he is in fact injured as reported by Sud Ouest.
The Beninese right back was injured during the last day of the championship (7th day) against Saumur Olympique. He would suffer from ankle pain and could be unavailable for the next two months. This would be the first “big” injury since the arrival of Bruno Irles.

Two possibilities to replace it
The Bordeaux coach will therefore have to compose. Two possibilities are available to him. First of all, the reserve captain last season, Glenn Younoussewho started the position in the Coupe de France on Monday against Bassens. Then, the second possibility is the full-back also trained at the club and returned this summer, Nathanaël Baïwho has had a lot of meetings since the start of the season, and who is very versatile. It will be up to Bruno Irles to decide for the next meeting, and the reception of Avranches this weekend at Matmut Atlantique.
As for the rest of the defense, Cédric Yambéré will return from his two meetings with the Central African Republic. Driss Trichardt was saved on Monday in the Cup and will return to the left-back position in two days. Finally, Jean Grillot should continue to have playing time following his good performances, but also because the record Djibril Diaw does not seem to be moving forward, particularly with regard to receiving his international transfer certificate (CIT).
This morning, during training, these compositions were aligned:
Team 1 : Diabaté – Bai, Trichard, Diaw, Grillot – Louveau, Depussay, Diallo, Bahassa – Merdji, Carroll.
Team 2 : Mandanda – Benmoussa, Younousse, Ranem, Trazié – Diaby, Ramon, Grain, Ben Khemis, Karim – Seck
