From Darkness to the Dream: Mohamed Abdel-Monem's Comeback Moment at Nice

Return to Training and Honest Reflections

He returned to training with Nice after a long layoff caused by an ACL injury sustained late last season.

Today he shared a photo of teammates welcoming him back and posted a lengthy message about his journey.

In his own words, he described how the injury sent him into a period of depression and anxiety about the future, but he insisted he would not abandon his dream and would push through every tough moment.

He spoke about feeling the love and support from fans and teammates, which strengthened his resolve to work hard and prove he could live up to expectations.

He added that faith and the people who care for him are priceless, and that maintaining good memories with family and friends is the real treasure to protect.

He closed by thanking everyone who remembered him and offered prayers, saying their support gave meaning to the moments they share.

And if comebacks were a sport, he'd already have the MVP trophy. And yes, his ACL seems to be on a hydration plan—he's coming back stronger than my morning coffee.
