Nathaniel Adjei, a defender from Ghana, made a brief appearance in Saturday’s Ligue 2 match between FC Lorient and Grenoble Foot 38 after recovering from an injury.
Since May, the adaptable defender had been off the field receiving treatment.
Adjei played his first game of the season on the field after 111 days off as FC Lorient defeated Grenoble Foot 38 2-0.
With four minutes left in the game, he was brought on, and he immediately made an impression with some impressive passing.
As a result, the 22-year-old was absent for a sizable chunk of the team’s preseason practice.

Olivier Pantaloni, the manager of FC Lorient, was pleased by the stalwart guardsman’s cameo performance.
It pleases me to see him playing. After the game, Pantaloni told reporters, “I’m pleased with him because he has worked hard to be here today.”
Adjei’s goal in their upcoming match against Amiens on Sunday is to play more minutes.
Last season, he made 15 appearances for the team from Brittany.
