La Jonelière, FC Nantes training center. - @ FCNantes / Arnaud Duret.

  • It is the resumption of training with the Canaries in a very specific health context.
  • This day on Monday is devoted to testing the Covid-19.
  • The work will then be done this week in a very individualized way after such a long period of inactivity.

It started out in a necessarily very specific context. After several months without competition, the players of FC Nantes find La Jonelière at the start of this week. "In accordance with the recommendations of the Professional Football League, the professional staff as well as the staff accompanying the players on a daily basis [with their agreement] will be tested at Covid-19 via a PCR test (nasal sample) and a serological test", announces the FCN on its official website. All these tests take place this Monday. In the event of an attack on Covid-19, a quarantine period will be immediately implemented.

The return to the Jonelière will be done behind closed doors, health crisis obliges. The sanitary rules will be drastic (no shower, no meal, etc.). No supporter will be able to take a place in the parking lot, nor will any media be able to enter the enclosure of the training center. The press conferences (Franck Kita the deputy director general of the FCN on Tuesday and the coach Christian Gourcuff, Wednesday at noon) will be carried out via the Internet.

Very individual recovery work

Four groups of players will be formed. Each group was assigned a well-defined niche schedule , to avoid rallies in the training center. In the same group, each player will work individually following the program set up by the technical staff. It will also be closely monitored by the medical staff (symptoms, various pathologies, etc.).

“From a physical point of view, the players come out of a long period of interruption of the classic sessions, explainsNicolas-Pierre Bernot, paramedical manager and physiotherapist for the professional staff of FC Nantes on the official website. Admittedly, they continued to work independently on their own, but it is difficult to quantify things and to know the precise state of each one as usual. It will therefore be important to be even more attentive to the bodies and to provide them with particularly individualized and adapted monitoring. "

Christian Gourcuff must find a group of nearly 30 players (with rookie Castelletto, but without Chirivella). The Canaries must really walk the lawn early next week. A first internship in Annecy is scheduled from July 13 to 19.
