All the experts consulted have confirmed this necessity,” a PSG statement said.

During a tightly contested 4-3 victory against Lille in the French league on February 19, Neymar suffered a twisted right ankle and had to be taken off the field on a stretcher. The Brazilian forward had scored PSG’s second goal of the game prior to the injury occurring early in the second half.
There has been some criticism directed towards Neymar regarding his level of commitment, with reports from French media indicating that he attended a poker tournament and had a meal at a fast-food restaurant a day after PSG’s 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League round of 16 at the Parc des Princes.
