Khvicha Kvaratskhelia
PSG
Set for knee surgery in Doha
Kvaratskhelia (knee) is expected to undergo surgery on his torn right ACL in Doha early this week, according to L'Equipe.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia is set to undergo surgery at the Aspetar clinic in Qatar after suffering a torn ACL during Tuesday's 4-2 Champions League victory over Barcelona. The exact date of the procedure has yet to be confirmed, but the Georgian winger is facing a lengthy recovery and is likely to miss the remainder of the season. He had recorded one goal, one assist and 13 chances created across nine appearances in Ligue 1 and the Champions League combined before the injury. His prolonged absence leaves PSG without a key attacking option, with Desire Doue, Ferran Torres and Maghnes Akliouche among those who could benefit from additional playing time.
Suffers torn ACL, set for surgery
Kvaratskhelia suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during Tuesday's 4-2 Champions League victory over Barcelona and will undergo surgery in the coming days, according to the club.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia sustained the serious knee injury during Tuesday's encounter against Barcelona, with subsequent medical examinations confirming a complete ACL tear. The Georgian winger is now facing an extended spell on the sidelines, with his recovery expected to take several months and potentially rule him out for the remainder of the season. He had recorded one goal, one assist and 13 chances created across nine appearances in Ligue 1 and the Champions League combined this season. His prolonged absence represents a significant blow to PSG's attacking options, with Desire Doue, Ferran Torres and Maghnes Akliouche among those who could see increased playing time during his recovery.
Suffers suspected ligament tear
Kvaratskhelia could be dealing with a serious ACL injury as there are serious worries within the club before he undergoes an MRI scan Wednesday, Hugo Delom and Regis Dupont of L'Equipe report.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia appears to be facing a pessimistic scenario after having to be helped off the field in the midweek clash with Barcelona. However, the severity of the injury if not yet confirmed officially and will have to wait for the results of medical tests. If he's dealing with ligament damage, the attacker will likely be ruled out for multiple months, missing at least the remainder of the calendar year. Such event would imply a massive blow to the squad, though they do have plenty of depth with Desire Doue, Ferran Torres and Maghnes Akliouche among the usual backup options.
Helped off Tuesday
Kvaratskhelia was helped off the pitch injured during Tuesday's clash with Barcelona.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia was brought off the pitch injured and unable to put any weight on his foot. The extent of the injury is unclear but the fact he couldn't walk off under his own power isn't encouraging. This is the second injury in a row to a star attacker, with Ousmane Dembele also coming off injured Tuesday. Kvaratskhelia is facing an uphill battle to be fit for a Sunday clash with Lyon.
Scores one goal off bench
Kvaratskhelia scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Le Mans.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia entered the match in the 59th minute and needed just two minutes to restore PSG's lead, reacting quickest to a rebound after Fabian Ruiz's effort was saved. The Georgian winger scored his first Ligue 1 goal of the campaign, bringing his tally to one goal and one assist across six league appearances. Despite a relatively difficult start to the season, his latest contribution offers encouragement, and there is little reason for concern given his proven attacking quality.
Threatens in victory
Kvaratskhelia generated four shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Brest.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia was lively from the left side of Paris' attack and had multiple opportunities to extend the advantage after Ferran Torres' early opener, though Egil Selvik and the Brest defense prevented him from getting on the scoresheet. The winger remains an important part of a fluid front line alongside Torres and Ousmane Dembele. Kvaratskhelia has recorded one assist through four Ligue 1 appearances this season.
Provides first league assist
Kvaratskhelia assisted once to go with three shots (two on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Friday's 2-1 loss against Monaco.
Analysis: Kvaratskhelia supplied the cross for Marquinhos' opener, earning his first Ligue 1 assist of the season. His four chances created underline his importance as one of PSG's primary sources of creativity, while he also threatened the Monaco goal himself. His ability to both create and finish chances should keep him heavily involved in PSG's attacking production.
Scores in UEFA Super Cup

Analysis: The star winger got the start on the left side of the attack for PSG and was a huge problem for the opposing defense, capping off his performance with a first-half goal. Kvaratskhelia is set to be a key player for PSG once again in 2026/27, even if manager Luis Enrique rotates the side from time to time.

The Georgian winger was subjected to constant double-teams throughout the contest, limiting his ability to influence the game in the way he usually does and forcing him to work in tight spaces whenever he received possession. Kvaratskhelia ends the 2025-26 Champions League campaign with 10 goals and six assists across 16 appearances, finishing as PSG's most decisive player during the knockout stages and one of the driving forces behind the club's successful title defense. Despite his outstanding season, he will be one of the most notable absentees from the 2026 World Cup, as Georgia national football team failed to qualify for the tournament.
