Good news. This Wednesday, Alberth Elis came out of the “artificial protective coma” in which he had been plunged after the significant head trauma he suffered on Saturday evening, against En Avant Guingamp. Asked this Thursday about the state of his attacker, Albert Riera was delighted with the evolution of the situation…while being cautious: “I am lucky to be in contact with his parents because they speak Spanish and that this month they were there to be with him. I spoke to them two days ago, they gave me a lot of hope because there was this beginning of awakening. And there they communicated even if I think we still have to be careful because it was a very serious accident but we have hope and good hope. The news did us all good and in particular the team,” explained the Girondins de Bordeaux coach at a press conference, in comments reported by RMC Sport.
Aged 28, Alberth Elis arrived in Gironde in the summer of 2021 from Boavista. With the Navy and Whites, the Honduran scored 15 goals and delivered 5 assists in 61 matches played in all competitions. This season, he has found the net 5 times in Ligue 2 (19 matches played). As a reminder, during the second part of last season, he was loaned to Stade Brestois.
