LOSC Lille: Ex-Bayern star Renato Sanches & 2 teammates have Corona – football

An ideal preparation looks different.

Lille professional Renato Sanches (22) has been infected with the Corona virus. The Portuguese sports newspaper “A Bola” reports. He is currently in his home country in Portugal. Sanches only needs two negative corona tests before he can travel back to France. As a result, the midfielder loses important training time.

In France, the 2019/2020 season was ended prematurely due to the Corona crisis. As a result, the new season begins on August 23. The teams are therefore already preparing. Lille start with a home game against Stade Rennes.

Yesterday Lille played a friendly against Mouscron (2-1). In addition to Sanches, two Lille players were missing due to a corona virus infection. Jonathan Ikoné (22) and Jonathan Bamba (24) will probably be able to return to training a little earlier than Sanches because they are both currently in France. Sanches is still optimistic, commented on Instagram: “The machine will return soon.”

Sanches never really gained a foothold at Bayern. In 2016 he moved from Benfica Lisbon to Munich for 35 million euros, but was unable to meet the high expectations. After a loan to Swansea City in the 2017/2018 season, Bayern handed it over to LOSC Lille for 20 million at the end of August 2019.

Sanches stabilized in France. In October the Portuguese retired due to a hamstring bruise. From late November he was seated at Lille. He was on the pitch in 14 league games in a row until the Corona break. In the last five games before the break, he scored two goals and prepared a goal, his form was in ascending order.

All the more bitter is the Corona setback for Sanches …
