said Saturday that tests reve♉aled damage to the si🎃de of the ankle and that he will have the operation next week in Qatar.
The French champion did not specify when the Slovakia international will return. Media reports estimated he'll be out fo🍌r several weeks.
The central defender limped off in the 71st minute of Wednesday's Champions Trophy win over Toulouse and was replaced b🌟y new signing Lucas Beraldo — a 20-year-old Brazilian.
Škriniar had started to settle following a difficult start to his PSG career after joining from , where he won the Serie A title in 2021, two Italian Cups, and reached the Cham♒pions League final last year.
Škriniar could now 🎃miss both legs against Sociedad — home on Februar🅷y 14, away on March 5.
PSG is already without central defender Presnel Kimpembe, who is recoveri💮ng from an Achilles tendon operation, leaving coach Luis Enrique with little cover in central defence.
Nordi Mukiele has not established himself since joining from Leipzig♓ 18 months ago and Beraldo is inexperienced, meaning PSG may have to buy a player during the January transfer🎶 window.
