Lyon
Ligue 1
GTD
Injury Hamstring
Est. Return 1/3/2026
Training individually with ball
Mangala (hamstring) was spotted training individually with the ball on Monday, according to Olympique et Lyonnais.
ANALYSIS
Mangala missed the last three games after suffering a new hamstring injury in training following his return from a long term ACL injury. The midfielder was spotted back on grass, training individually with the ball on Monday. While a return for Sunday's clash in the French Cup seems too early at this point, Mangala should be in line to make his return for the first clash of the year in Ligue 1 against Monaco on Jan. 3.
