Samir Chergui could not finish the match between Paris FC and FC Lorient, which took place this weekend in Ligue 1. Recently returned from Algeria's national team camp, where he was rested during the last two matches, the defender had to leave the field in the 65th minute due to a muscle pain.
Starting in the central defense for Paris, the 27-year-old player seemed to be performing well before feeling discomfort that led him to request a substitution. The coaching staff opted to replace him immediately to prevent any worsening of his condition.
Shortly after his departure, Paris FC conceded a goal that allowed Lorient to take the lead. The Parisians were unable to equalize thereafter.
Attention now turns to the health of the Algerian defender. Tests are scheduled to provide a precise diagnosis and determine whether he will need to rest. This potential injury comes as Chergui has become a key player for Paris FC this season.
