The images are impressive. Jeff Reine-Adelaïde is on the ground, stunned, unconscious, his nose and mouth bloody. Hit by a ball in the face, at point blank range, during the meeting between his club Molenbeek and Charleroi this Saturday, the former Lyonnais (26 years old) remained inanimate for many minutes. He was then evacuated on a stretcher and taken to hospital.

Holder for this relegation playoff match, Jeff Reine-Adelaïde, trained in Torcy (Seine-et-Marne), lost consciousness just before half-time while his team was already trailing 0-3 (final score 1-3 ).

While commentators initially spoke of possible broken teeth, he could actually be suffering from a brain hemorrhage. “Jeff was unconscious for about ten minutes. We fear a brain hemorrhage,” Molenbeek coach Yannick Ferrera said at a press conference.

The player received the support of OL, his former club, where he played from 2019 to 2023. “Olympique Lyonnais is with you at this difficult time. We wish you a speedy recovery, courage and strength to you,” writes the club on the social network X.
