Neymar will be left with the desire to face Barcelona, his former team, and to meet again with Lionel Messi, his good friend. An injury will prevent the forward from being part of PSG's expedition that must travel to Spain next week to face the first leg of the Champions League round of 16.

“Neymar suffered a left adductor longus injury on Wednesday night. After the analysis of the clinical examination and the imaging tests, an unavailability of approximately four weeks is expected depending on the course ”, confirmed the capital institution through a statement.

After the official announcement of ‘Les Parisiens’, the Brazilian star will not be in a position to face the commitment scheduled for Tuesday, February 16 at the Camp Nou (3:00 p.m., Peruvian time). Even, due to the estimated time of absence, the presence of the player is not guaranteed for the rematch of March 10 in the Park of the Princes.

On the other hand, according to the newspaper L’Equipe, the forward attended a hospital to undergo medical examinations, after feeling himself during Wednesday's clash against Caen for the French Cup. The 29-year-old footballer's environment confirmed to the sports newspaper about the bad news.

After the cup clash, Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino, still without knowing the player's real condition, assured that “I don't regret having lined up Neymar. These are things that can happen ”. Now, the coach of ‘Les Bleus’ will have a great headache to put together the team and he will face the Catalans.
