Stade de Reims have confirmed that Reda Khadra (23) has sustained an ACL injury that will rule him out of much of, it not all of the Ligue 1 campaign.
Khadra came on in the 78th minute of Saturday night’s encounter against Paris Saint-Germain, as Stade de Reims secured a deserved point against the reigning Ligue 1 champions. However, the Germany youth international only lasted 10 minutes before being stretched off, visibly distraught.
Midfielder Khadra joined Reims from Brighton and Hove Albion for just under €2m in the summer of 2023. In his debut season for Les Stadistes, he made 31 appearances in all competitions, including 14 starts in Ligue 1. He has played a part in four of Reims’ five Ligue 1 games this season, although every appearance was from the bench.
After coming off injured late on against PSG, Luka Elsner was pessimistic about the injury, stating that he feared his midfielder had ruptured his ACL. Those fears have now been realised with Reims confirming the ACL rupture in Khadra’s left knee. The club added that he will soon undergo an operation and he is expected to miss between six and eight months of competition.
