This is the law of series. And bad series. PSG have been losing their players to injury one by one for the past few matches. Already weakened by the injury of Kylian Mbappé, unavailable until the end of February, PSG may have lost Renato Sanches for the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 match against Bayern on February 14.
After less than a quarter of an hour of play at the Parc des Princes, the Portuguese international midfielder, a former Bayern player, seemed to injure himself, raising his hand to his bench just after a long pass. Dejected, he then collapsed with his nose in the lawn, remaining prostrate, before getting up and leaving the field in tears, replaced by the young defender El Chadaille Bitshiabu (17 years old).
In recent weeks, PSG has seen its infirmary fill up with glitches for Neymar, Sergio Ramos and especially Mbappé, injured on Wednesday against Montpellier (3-1) and absent for three weeks according to his club.
