PSG forward Neymar will miss the remainder of this season as he undergoes ligament repair surgery following recurring ankle problems. The Brazilian is set to be sidelined for at least three months once the surgery takes place in the coming days.
Neymar has missed PSG’s last two matches, last playing in a 4-3 win against Lille in mid-February when he was taken off on a stretcher. “Neymar Jr has had several episodes of right ankle instability in recent years,” a PSG statement read.
“Following his last sprain contracted on February 20, the medical staff of Paris Saint-Germain recommended a ligament repair operation, in order to avoid a major risk of recurrence. All of the experts consulted confirmed this need.
