Attends World Cup training
Placide (knee) is in Haiti for the training camp ahead of the 2026 World Cup, according to Haiti Tempo.
Analysis: Placide is recovering from a knee surgery he went through a few months ago, but is on the mend as he prepares for the World Cup, and he has traveled to Haiti to join his team. This is major news for the team, as he is set to be their starting keeper and is a key part of the team, likely to captain and be a fan favorite for Haitians. He remains a starter for Basita in Ligue 2 when fit, recording eight clean sheets in 23 appearances, and is likely to be a key player if Haiti wants any success in the tournament.
Recovering from knee surgery
Placide has been struggling with knee issues for which he underwent surgery in March, his club announced.
Analysis: Placide made his last appearance in the French second division on March 20, before which he had been an essential player for both Bastia and the Haitian national team. While it's unclear if the problem will keep him out of the World Cup, it could be a massive absence for his country. Alexandre Pierre has taken part in recent international friendlies and should be in line to start if Placide fails to recover in the next month.
