Abdoulaye Toure Injury: Hope to return against Lens

Toure (hamstring) hopes to be back available against Lens on Sunday but no risk will be taken with him, coach Didier Digard said in a press conference.

Toure suffered a hamstring injury ahead of the first game of the season against Monaco but hopes to be back for the second one against Lens on Sunday. That said, Toure is an important player for the Ciel et Marine, and coach Didier Digard said they will manage him carefully since they do not want to take any risks of losing him for an extended period of time. Simon Ebonog will get a larger role in the midfield until the captain returns.
