Neymar has not broken anything, but a sprained ankle is expected to keep him out of action for Paris Saint-Germain for around three weeks.
The Brazil star had to be taken off on a stretcher in the second half of PSG’s drama-filled 4-3 win over Lille in Ligue 1 on Sunday afternoon. He rolled his right ankle while running at full speed and under pressure from a Lille defender.
Neymar appeared to be in a considerable amount of pain. After trying to stand up and put weight on his injured ankle, he used the stretcher that was on offer to exit the Parc des Princes pitch.
