Time passes and some casual observers might think that Presnel Kimpembe is no longer a football player. Victim of a terrible injury in the form of a ruptured Achilles tendon during a match against Marseille on February 26, 2023, the Paris Saint-Germain defender has not played again since then. A first operation followed by a long convalescence, another spell on the billiards table and again rest and rehabilitation, Presnel Kimpembe had to demonstrate extreme patience coupled with unfailing willpower. Sunday evening, he took stock of his situation.
During an interview broadcast on Canal+the French international first spoke about his current condition.
“It’s going very well. I have good feelings and I was able to resume with the team as a collective. It’s been a long year. » Concerning his injury and its consequences, he assured that he never thought of saying stop. “No, never. I had a ruptured Achilles tendon. It’s worse than a crusader for those who don’t know. We question everything a little. But even if people see me as dead, I know it will come back. »
A new Kimpembe
As for the difficulty of having to be patient and go months without playing: “I managed to keep things in check, to always stay as close as possible to the team by traveling to the Champions League and going to all the matches. I was able to give my support and they gave me theirs. I was able to continue to stay in this routine of a normal player. » The fact remains that Presnel Kimpembe is now twenty-nine years old and he has still not played under the orders of Luis Enrique who arrived at PSG in the summer of 2023. Nothing to worry about once again.
Optimistic as ever, the one who will have to fight to recover playing time in central defense, ended with an announcement in the form of a promise: “I’m just waiting for the right moment, the right hour. And there, you will discover a new Presnel, always ready to defend the colors of the club, with the same courage and the same anger. » Hoping for him that the physique holds up.
