Neymar will miss the next two games for Paris Saint-Germain due to an ankle injury, according to coach Christophe Galtier, ruling him out of their Ligue 1 match against Nantes and the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Bayern Munich.
The Brazil international was carried off the pitch on a stretcher during PSG’s 4-3 win over Lille on Feb. 19 with an ankle ligament injury, which was later confirmed.
Galtier also stated that he plans to replace Neymar with a midfielder rather than another attacker, as he did in last week’s 3-0 win over rivals Olympique de Marseille, where Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe led the team to its second straight league victory..
