Pierre Lees-Melou closes in on Brest return

Pierre Lees-Melou (31) is slowly closing in on a return to the pitch for Stade Bresotis after he underwent surgery on a stress fracture to his right fibula back in May. According to a report by L’Équipe, Lees-Melou has returned to training and has been given the all-clear to be included in match-day squads. 

However, the French outlet notes that the midfielder is still some way off being fully match-fit after a lengthy absence. Lees-Melou will be unlikely to feature in the club’s next three games where the club will AJ Auxerre and RB Salzburg before hosting Le Havre at the Stade Francis-Le Blé. L’Équipe suspects the midfielder will be back on the pitch following the international break in early October.  

Lees-Melou’s influence on the pitch has been missed this season. Despite an impressive debut victory in the Champions League over SK Sturm Graz, Les Pirates have been a far cry from last season’s high-flying outfit. Brest have won twice but lost three times in Ligue 1.
