Maccabi Haifa's left-back, Pierre Cornud, is nearing a return to training nearly nine months after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Cornud has resumed running as part of his rehabilitation process, which began in France and continued in Israel.
Cornud underwent a minor back surgery about a month ago, but the club stated it did not delay his recovery. He is gradually reintegrating physically with the team, with the next step being to rejoin ball training.
Maccabi Haifa anticipates Cornud will be fully match-fit in approximately one to one-and-a-half months. The club did not sign a left-back this summer, despite criticism, banking on Cornud's return to the position.
Cornud, who holds an Israeli passport, is expected to be a significant reinforcement for Maccabi Haifa by January, regardless of the new coach. The team was impressed with his training regimen during his recovery period. Another player has also removed his crutches and is in the midst of his rehabilitation.
