He did tests at the hospital which revealed an arrhythmia.
Still according to our information, the player is doing well.
He was released from the hospital directly after the tests and was left to rest.
If the meeting against La Rochelle will be postponed, that does not change the state of mind of the Toulon leaders who had decided upstream that they would not take part in the meeting.

I can hardly see myself putting an 18-year-old kid on the ground, having an accident and saying to yourself that it was because we wanted to avoid having an extra date,
explained Azéma.
The priority is the health of our players.
