Stéphane Diarra Suffers Cruciate Ligament Injury: AS Saint-Étienne in Search of Offensive Reinforcements

2024-01-16 17:30:00

Exited with an injury during the friendly match once morest Grenoble, won three goals to zero by AS Saint-Étienne, Stéphane Diarra was not present in the group once morest Laval as his coach announced in a pre-match press conference: “We have Stéphane Diarra who was affected in the last friendly match once morest Grenoble, that’s the negative point. Otherwise things are going well, almost everyone is on deck. What’s annoying is that Stéphane Diarra took a good knock, we’re waiting for the MRI this followingnoon.”

After the match once morest Stade Lavallois, Olivier Dall’Oglio expressed his concern regarding his winger: “Stéphane Diarra? He has to take another exam, maybe it’s not as trivial as we thought.”

The verdict has fallen for Stéphane Diarra and AS Saint-Étienne as the player has just announced via his account Instagram. The striker on loan from FC Lorient suffers from a ruptured cruciate knee ligament and will undergo surgery. It is therefore a very likely end of the season for the Saint-Etienne striker. A slim hope of seeing him wear the green jersey once more remains, if the ligament rupture is only partial, however, with the surgical operation looming, the chances of seeing him once more with AS Saint-Étienne are slim .

Stéphane Diarra (on Instagram) : “As you might see, during the last match once morest Laval, I was not present. Unfortunately, I was injured a week before during a friendly match and, following several medical examinations, the verdict was in. I have a torn cruciate ligament, so I will have to have surgery in the coming days.
Unfortunately I will not be able to help my teammates for the next deadlines
.”

This is the tile for the 25-year-old player and AS Saint-Étienne who are already sorely lacking in offensive elements in their profile. This will inevitably push the club to accelerate recruitment in this area, Olivier Dall’Oglio having repeatedly said we want deep players, who strike up front, as following the match once morest Stade Lavallois: “I think you saw it, we lack depth up front, we need players who make an impact, we have the return of Wadji who took a little time, he will train with us but he will not perform well tomorrow Morning. There will also certainly be a player that we don’t know yet to strengthen this attack, we need that and in today’s match, we also need passers, as we were able to have once morest Bastia .

Stéphane Diarra had worn the Greens jersey 11 times in Ligue 2 in this first part of the season and might therefore no longer wear it.
