PARIS: Neymar will miss three Paris Saint-Germain matches after his thigh was injured against Basaksehir in the Champions League yesterday.

Neymar was released in the 25th minute in Istanbul before PSG won the match 2-0.

“The Brazilian, who tried to continue the game before asking to be replaced, underwent an MRI scan and found a tear in his thigh muscle,” the French media said.

The next three PSG games are Ligue 1 action in Nantes tomorrow, followed by RB Leipzig’s visit to Paris for the Champions League on Wednesday and a meeting with Rennes (Ligue 1) on November 7.

After that is the break of the international match where Brazil will face Venezuela and Uruguay in the World Cup qualifiers.

However, there has been no decision on the participation of the Brazilian star for the action.
