huge blow for Malick Fofana with Belgium

Malick Fofana, the Belgian nugget of Olympique Lyonnais, was slightly injured during the intense derby against AS Saint-Étienne on Sunday evening (1-0 victory). After a remarkable performance on the field, he had to leave his team prematurely apparently due to this minor injury. Despite this mishap, he took the plane this Monday morning for Brussels to join the Belgian national team, where he will be taken care of by the doctors of the Red Devils in coordination with those of Olympique Lyonnais for optimal recovery.

Due to this injury, the winger will not be able to participate in Thursday's Nations League match, with priority given to his rest and treatment. Although present in Belgium, the medical staff of the Red Devils prefer to avoid any risk and ensure that the young striker fully regains his abilities before resuming competition, as revealed by journalist Sacha Tavioleri. Since the start of the season, the 19-year-old winger has already made 15 appearances in all competitions for five goals and two assists.
