Tahirys Dos Santos, a 19-year-old left-back for FC Metz, made a surprise return to the team's training center 49 days after suffering severe burns in the Le Constellation bar fire on New Year's Eve in Crans-Montana. The club shared a video of his emotional reunion with teammates, who warmly applauded him and presented him with a jersey reading "On est avec toi Tahirys." Dos Santos, who sustained third-degree burns to approximately 30% of his body while rescuing his girlfriend, was transferred to Stuttgart for skin grafts before returning to Metz for rehabilitation. While no return date to playing has been set, doctors have assured him he can resume his football career, and he is expected to extend his current contract with FC Metz, which expires in June.
