Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has announced that Neymar is set to undergo ankle surgery that will see him miss the remainder of the 2022/23 season. Neymar, 31, has not played since suffering an ankle injury during PSG’s clash with Lille in February.
PSG have said he will be out for “three to four months” before he can resume team training. A statement from PSG said: “Neymar has had several episodes of right ankle instability in recent years.
“Following his last sprain contracted on February 20, the medical staff of Paris Saint-Germain recommended a ligament repair operation, to avoid a major risk of recurrence.
All of the experts consulted confirmed this need. “This surgery will be performed in the coming days at ASPETAR Hospital in Doha. “A delay of three to four months is expected before his return to collective training.” PSG’s next game is the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Bayern Munich on Wednesday.
