Forced to leave his partners at the break on Saturday evening after being hit in the left ankle against Brest, the Dutchman will be in


This is not going to reconcile PSG with the refereeing body.

Nor give a smile to Mauricio Pochettino.

Sunday, the day after the success (2-0) obtained against Brest on the occasion of the 21st day of Ligue 1, the Parisian club formalized the entry of Georginio Wijnaldum into the infirmary.

“Georginio Wijnaldum has a sprained left ankle with partial damage to the internal lateral ligament,” the capital club said in a statement released on Sunday afternoon.

“A 3-week unavailability is expected depending on clinical progress and controls.

Another blow for Paris

A blow for Mauricio Pochettino but also and above all for the former Liverpool midfielder who, after a most disappointing first half of the season, had delivered an encouraging first half on Saturday evening at the Parc des Princes.

But "tackled" by Lucien Agoumé on an innocuous action just before the break, the Dutchman saw his ankle bend inwards when the Breton fell on him, dragging him in his fall.

Already deprived of the Moroccan Hakimi, the Senegalese Diallo and Gueye, who left to compete in the CAN in Cameroon, of Neymar, still in care for his ankle, but also of Leo Messi who is recovering from the Covid, Paris is therefore faced with a new long absence duration.

Not really good news.
