The player, who was a trainee at FC Metz before the tragedy, also wanted to “thank all the medical teams who gave him first aid as well as those at the Sion hospital in Switzerland, that of the Stuttgart Hospital Center in Germany where he was transferred on the evening of January 1 and where he stayed for more than a week and now that of the Mercy hospital in Metz where he is being treated and where he will have to stay for several weeks. »
“Continue your professional career”
The player also had a thought for FC Metz. Before the match against Lorient last Sunday, the players of the Lorraine club notably posed with a t-shirt on which it was written: “We are with you Tahirys”.
“He would also like to thank in particular the entire FC Metz for the unfailing support given to his family as well as to himself since the first hours of this tragedy. He also wants to make it known that he will be determined to return to the field and be able to continue his professional career,” his agent mentioned in particular.
