Former Players: difficult season for Pouplin

24 January 2011 à 23h33

Simon Pouplin is experiencing a very delicate2010-2011 season. On the side lines since October because of an ankle injury, the former Rennes goalkeeper hasn’t fully recovered, and will have to undergo surgery this Tuesday, Ouest-France announces.

Consequently, Pouplin will not return before April. A real blow for the Cholet-man, whose contract is due to expire at the end of the season. In October, just before his injury, the Freiburg player had expressed his wish to “manage a good season” in order to extend his contract or find a new club in Germany.
