Mbappé out for three weeks, unlikely to face Bayern

Havana, February 2 (RHC)-- PSG's star striker Kylian Mbappé will be out for about three weeks due to injury, so he would miss the Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.

Only a miracle would send Bondy's idol to the pitch of the Parc des Princes in the French capital on February 14, in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16.

According to the medical report of the red-and-blue team, the player is suffering from a hamstring injury in his left leg, after the blow received in Montpelier in the matchday 21 of the Ligue 1.

After missing penalties on a couple of occasions early in the game, Mbappé left the challenge in the 21st minute due to a heavy tackle from home midfielder Léo Leroy.

"It hurts too much," the PSG and Les Bleus forward was heard telling medical staff.

The period of convalescence will prevent the player from participating in the Ligue1 matches against Toulouse on Saturday and Monaco on February 11, as well as the PSG-Olympique de Marseille derby, which will animate the round of 16 of the Coupe de France on February 8.

For many, the expectation is that Mbappé will be ready for the second leg against Bayern in the Champions League on March 8 in Munich, so they assume he will not arrive in time for the first leg.

The news is a real headache for coach Christophe Galtier, who had shown his hopes that it was nothing serious.

PSG were without Neymar for the last game due to muscular problems, and are hoping that the Brazilian will be able to join star striker Lionel Messi in attack against the Bavarians.
