Ghana defender Emmanuel Ntim will be out for two weeks after suffering an injury in Caen’s game against Saint-Ettienne.
But he has already been out for a week, it means he will be back in a week training.
The 27-year-old center back was taken off after 44 minutes with a knee sprain on Saturday, September 16 and was replaced by Alexandre Coeff.
It is reported in the French media that Emmanuel Ntim will be out for at least two weeks with the injury.
