The news worried Algeria less than two months before the 2026 World Cup. Sunday, during the LaLiga2 match lost by Granada against Almeria (2-4), Luca Zidane had to leave his teammates at the very end of the match, hit in the face.
And the diagnosis turned out to be alarming for the one that Vladimir Petkovic could start in the Greens’ goal this summer, with a double fracture to the jaw and chin. What to note the package of the son of “Zizou” for the North American World Cup?
“More fear than harm” for Luca Zidane
A priori, no. The French goalkeeper, naturalized last September, gave rather reassuring news on Instagram.
“The operation went very well, more fear than harm”he wrote in the caption of a photo showing him on his hospital bed.
“I will be back on the field very soon”he adds. If he does not specify when he will be able to play again, Luca Zidane would undoubtedly not have displayed the same optimism if he had had to give up on the United States. The Fennecs can breathe.
