Second in the Pro D2 championship, Oyonnax will not receive Grenoble (11th) in optimal conditions this Friday evening. When announcing the team composition 24 hours before kick-off, the Aindinois club revealed that several of its members had been diagnosed positive for Covid. All are asymptomatic, including Joe El Abd, the sports manager. The latter will therefore not be present at Mathon. “From a distance, he will be in direct contact with all of his staff to prepare for the match and help the players lead the group,” said the club.
US Bressane also affected
On Wednesday, Fabrice Estebanez, the manager of US Bressane, also indicated that three of his players had tested positive for Covid, without revealing their identity. US Bressane will travel to Rouen on Friday.
