A fracture rules Leonel Ntebeu Djoko out for 25 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Fauve Azur Elite will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Words at Fauve Azur Elite training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Janvier Angoa is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
