Very bad evening for Jonathan Danty against Perpignan on Saturday. The three-quarter center of La Rochelle, already the victim of a violent header from Mathieu Acebes at the end of the first period, mainly suffered a knee injury which forced him out of the field. According to the information of Rugbyrama this Tuesday, confirmed by The Teamthe posterior cruciate ligament of the right knee is affected.
Blues framework
A blow for the Rochelais, of course, but also for the XV of France. Because if new examinations must be carried out to determine the exact duration of the unavailability, the international player should be absent for around two months, and therefore miss at least the start of the Six Nations Tournament, scheduled for February 5.
Jonathan Danty, 30, has been a senior player in Fabien Galthié’s squad for over a year now. Associated with Gaël Fickou in the center, he actively participated in the grand slam achieved last year in the Tournament and in the victories against Australia and South Africa in November.
