Brazil and Paris St-Germain forward, Neymar, is set to miss the Champions League last-16 second-leg tie against Real Madrid next week after being diagnosed with a fractured metatarsal and a sprained ankle.

Neymar, 26, was injured and had to be stretchered off during PSG’s Sunday’s Ligue 1 win over Marseille.

According the BBC, PSG said Neymar suffered “a sprain of the right ankle and fissure of the fifth metatarsal”.

They however did not indicate how long he would be out.

The former Barcelona star joined PSG for a world record £200m fee from Barcelona last August and has scored 29 goals in 30 games.

PSG are 14 points clear of second-placed Monaco in the league and will host Champions League holders Real Madrid on March 6, trailing 3-1 from the first leg.
