Rui Borges sheds light on Zeno Debast’s fitness after Sporting v Marseille | OneFootball

Zeno Debast delivered one of the best performances among the players of Sporting against Marseille (2-1), however, the night did not end well for the Belgian international. Towards the end of the match, the player requested medical assistance and had to be substituted.

Ousmane Diomande came in a few minutes later to take his place, but the truth is that the complaints from the 21-year-old footballer caused some concern among the fans and the Lions' bench, as he fell to the ground without having contested any play at that moment.

At the end of the match, Rui Borges was asked about the extent of Debast's injury, but the coach showed he did not have much information and said he would have to ask the Belgian and the medical team for updates: “I haven't asked yet, but it might be cramps.”

Another player who also finished the match with noticeable physical difficulties was Maxi Araújo, however, according to the newspaper Record, the Uruguayan international's condition does not raise any concern. Regarding Debast, Sporting is expected to have new information this Thursday, October 23, after he is evaluated.

At the start of this season, Zeno Debast - valued at 30 million euros - has already played 13 official matches wearing the Sporting jersey. The Belgian international for the Lions has, so far, 855 minutes of play, but still without any goals or assists to his personal account.
