Paris Saint-Germain has confirmed the serious injury of Georgian star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who was hurt during yesterday’s match against Barcelona in the Champions League.
Following medical examinations, the French club announced that the forward has suffered a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. PSG also announced that the player will undergo surgery in the coming days.
So far, the French champions have not officially determined how long the footballer will be out. The club is expected to make a final decision after the operation, when the appropriate treatment and rehabilitation program will also be determined.
However, according to reports now circulating, Kvaratskhelia may be out of action for a period of six to nine months. If this forecast is confirmed, the current season may have ended early for the Georgian forward.
This is serious news for PSG, as Kvaratskhelia is one of the key players in the attacking line, and his absence is expected to affect the team’s plans for upcoming matches.
