Sofiane Boufal, who did not return for the second half at La Gantoise, does not suffer from any ligament tears. Good news for the Moroccan, as well as for the Unionists.
On the pitch at La Gantoise, Union Saint-Gilloise won 1-3 and ended the calendar year in style. However, a shadow slightly spoiled the Saint-Gillois celebration. Sofiane Boufal, visibly injured, did not return after the break.
A concern for the Unionists, while the 31-year-old Moroccan canceled his vacation in order to have an MRI on Friday and to rest. The results are in, and they are reassuring.
No tears for Sofiane Boufal
According to our colleagues at Last Hourthe left winger does not suffer from any ligament tear or sprain, but simply from a large bruise on the ankle.
If the duration of his unavailability will depend solely on the evolution of his hematoma, it should therefore not be too long. On vacation until January 3, Boufal and the Union must face Antwerp on January 8 in the quarter-finals of the Belgian Cup.
