Havana, March 6 (RHC)-- Brazilian soccer player Neymar Jr will miss the remainder of the season. PSG has issued a statement saying that the player will be out for three to four months due to the serious ankle injury he suffered two weeks ago against Lille: "The player has had several episodes of instability over the last few years. After his last sprain on February 20, the club's medical staff recommended a ligament repair operation to avoid a greater risk of relapse. All the experts consulted have confirmed the need," reads the letter.

The operation will be performed in the coming days at the Aspetar hospital in Doha. The South American appeared on crutches at the Parc des Princes last Saturday. After the clash against Nantes, he went down to the pitch to stand next to Mbappé at the tribute prepared for him by the club after surpassing Cavani's goal-scoring record. Even then, the news was not encouraging for the Brazilian, who now knows he will not be able to compete again until next season.

Neymar's injury history is long, especially at capital moments. In 2018, he missed the first leg of the round of 16 Champions League tie against Real Madrid. In 2019, even worse: he did not get to play a single minute against Manchester United. In 2020, the year in which the club reached its first Champions League final, the 10 did not suffer any setbacks. However, in 2021 he did not take part in the tie against Barça and in 2022 he barely played ten minutes in the first leg of the round of 16 against Real Madrid. Although he forced in the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu, he did not prevent the debacle of the Parisians.
