Louis Mouton
Out three months
Mouton (knee) has undergone successful surgery on his left external meniscus and will be sidelined for approximately three months, the club announced.
Analysis: Mouton had been stretchered off in tears during Sunday's clash against Strasbourg after a non-contact knee injury, and the surgical intervention confirms he will miss the start of the 2026/27 campaign in addition to the remainder of the current season. The midfielder ends the campaign with two goals and one assist across 32 appearances (24 starts), having been one of Angers' most creative performers throughout the season before the cruel injury brought his year to a premature end.
Set for surgery
Mouton (knee) is set for surgery on his meniscus, according to manager Alexandre Dejeux, per Antoine Raguin of Ouest France.
Analysis: Mouton had to be stretchered off last match after a non-contact injury and appears to be heading towards a decent absence, as meniscus surgery has been confirmed. Unfortunately for the midfielder, this will not only end this season for him, but it will also likely delay his start to the next campaign, as his recovery could take anywhere from three to six months. He will hope for no setbacks, ending this season with two goals and one assist in 32 appearances (24 starts).
Stretchered off, season over
Mouton was stretchered off in tears after injuring his left knee without contact during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Strasbourg, according to Cyril Olives-Berthet of L'Equipe.
Analysis: Mouton had been on the pitch for 61 minutes before going down alone clutching his left knee, remaining on the ground for several minutes before being carried off on a stretcher with his face buried in his hands in clear distress. He returned to the touchline at the final whistle with his leg immobilized and needing support to walk, painting a deeply concerning picture of the severity of the issue. If the injury proves as serious as feared, Mouton would end the season with two goals and one assist alongside 31 crosses and 22 chances created across 32 Ligue 1 appearances (24 starts), having been one of Angers' most creative performers throughout the campaign.
Gets start and injury
Mouton was injured and subbed out in the 61st minute of Sunday's 1-1 draw against Strasbourg. He had one shot (zero on goal) before exiting the match.
Analysis: For the first time since April 11, Mouton was able to get himself a spot in Angers' starting XI, not long after he was dropped due to perceived inconsistent form. Unfortunately for him, he was barely able to get over an hour's worth of minutes due to an undisclosed injury. Mouton will look to get healthy before Angers' regular-season finale next weekend at Brest.
