Away from the field since last January, Martin Terrier sees the end of the tunnel and could make his return to the Rennes group shortly.

Author of an excellent start in Ligue 1 with a clear victory against Metz (5-1), Rennes quickly fell into line. The fault of three consecutive draws against Lens (1-1), Le Havre (2-2) and Brest (0-0). Nothing to worry about Florian Maurice. “I am convinced that we recruited well, that the guys who arrived will be 100% very quickly to have a great season”he said Monday at a press conference.

The technical director of the Breton club can be all the more optimistic that a major player will return to Bruno Genesio’s squad. Seriously injured in the cruciate ligaments of the knee at the beginning of January, Martin Terrier started on Wednesday in a phase of “gradual recovery”, says the SRFC. Good news for Stade Rennais, which can therefore hope to find an important element in the coming weeks.

Before his injury, Martin Terrier had a brilliant first half of the season (9 goals and 4 assists in 16 league games), which confirmed a very successful 2021-2022 exercise (21 goals and 3 assists in 37 games). Performances that had earned him to be very close to the France team. Since then, the Rouge et Noir have been considerably strengthened offensively. Will he regain his indisputable status?
