There’s a significant worry looming over PSG as their star striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, was forced to exit prematurely on Wednesday due to a thigh injury, leaving the French club and its supporters on edge. Despite a triumphant 3-1 victory against the Blues, the people of Ile-de-France are anxiously hoping for positive news.
Dr. Eric Rolland of PSG offered some reassurance with the statement, “Everything is possible,” but it didn’t alleviate concerns within the Parisian ranks. Optimism has been in short supply since Wednesday evening. Laurent Blanc confirmed, “It’s a muscular problem; we’ll need to consult the doctor. Ibra wanted to push through, but it wasn’t wise. He’ll be sidelined for some time,” hinting at a potential month-long absence.
More clarity is anticipated on Friday following medical tests to determine the extent of Ibrahimovic’s injury and his recovery timeline. However, he’s already ruled out of the return leg at Stamford Bridge next Tuesday.
