Injuries: Mangane out for several weeks

Victim of a thigh injury this Friday, the Rennais captain had had to forfeit for the derby against Brest. Ouest-France indicates in yesterday’s edition, that Kader Mangane suffers with a 6 cm muscular tear. This injury should keep him away from the pitches for several weeks.

However, Frédéric Antonetti will be able to rely on a super substitute in Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik, who managed another great game in central defence yesterday. Romain Danzé should be keeping the captain armband. It is also good to note that Onyekachi Apam could return to the squad within ten days (also read).
