Akor Adams injured his thigh against Brest (3-1) on November 10. Midi Libre – JEAN-MICHEL MART
Playmaker Téji Savanier and striker Akor Adams, who has recovered from a torn thigh, are ready to play on Sunday (3 p.m.) in Lens, announced Montpellier coach Jean-Louis Gasset on Friday, December 6.
Two reassuring presences, one worrying absence. To play Sunday in Lens, during the 14th day of Ligue 1, Montpellier will be able to count on playmaker Téji Savanier, injured against Lille (2-2) in an aerial duel with Ayyoub Bouaddi, and on the return of center forward Akor Adams, recovered from a right thigh injury sustained against Brest on November 10. Conversely, the French-Moroccan winger Othamane Maamma will not be in the group.

We had an X-ray to make sure there was no fracture or crack. He was manipulated. Little by little, he is regaining sensations”, explained coach Jean-Louis Gasset.
“Some players are filling the can”
On the other hand, the Montpellier coach deplores the absence of Othamane Maamma. “The test carried out by Othmane on Thursday was not conclusive. He still has discomfort and apprehension. We are not taking any risks with all these muscular problems”, justified the technician, also deprived of Tanguy Coulibaly and Rabby Nzingoula, suspended.
The young striker Yanis Issoufou and the midfielder Khalil Fayad, who are recovering from muscular injuries, are continuing their re-athleticization work.
While some players are slow to regain their physical sensations, others are really doing much better. “Some important players, who have been back for two or three matches, have had a very positive week. Chotard, Omeragic, Tamari or Maksimovic are filling their cans”, assures Jean-Louis Gasset. A timely return because Montpellier will need fuel to stand up to Lens.
