Package for the World Cup in France after his left knee injury on August 12 against Scotland, Romain Ntamack confided this Sunday evening at the microphone of Canal before the match between Stade Toulousain and Montpellier. “I am going to have surgery on Thursday. I can’t wait for the operation to start my own World Cup and get back on the pitch, “said the opener in his interview.
“It’s not easy, that’s for sure, but I always tell myself that there is worse, that it’s only rugby. I’m lucky to be quite young and I could play others if I give myself the means. I had done what was necessary to be there but it was a stroke of luck. I was blessed a few weeks ago at the Stade de France and there it falls on me, that’s how it is. There is always more serious “, relativized the French international who will miss a very important meeting with the XV tricolor. Even if he wants to return to competition quickly, Ntamack remains lucid not to relapse: “I’m in a hurry but I’ll take the time to recover well. I will take the injury to rest physically and mentally. It’s been a very long time since I’ve cut. This will allow me to come back as fresh as possible physically and mentally,” he concluded.
