Still out, hopeful for return soon
Traore (knee) is still out but eyeing a return around the Nottingham Forest match, according to manager Regis Le Bris. "Bertrand is still sidelined, but [he] is close to reconnecting with the squad. Probably around the Nottingham Forest game."
Analysis: Traore is nearing the end of his longer absence, dating back to the start of March, as the forward is hopeful to join the squad again near the Nottingham Forest match. This is yet to be confirmed, as this is his first update since the injury, potentially needing a bit more time to play. He has struggled for time since the start of the new year due to injury, so he hopes for his return by the end of the season, starting in nine games before the unlucky run.
Confirmed out 6-8 weeks
Traore (knee) is expected to be sidelined for six to eight weeks, according to coach Regis Le Bris. "After seeking many opinions, we're expecting Bertrand to be out six to eight weeks..."
Analysis: Traore is expected to be sidelined for six to eight weeks due to a knee injury after seeing specialists. The attacking midfielder had been starting prior to the injury, and his confirmed absence for the coming weeks is a significant blow for the side, which is already dealing with several absences on the wings. Nilson Angulo and Chemsdine Talbi are expected to see extended minutes in his absence.
