Cristiano Ronaldo Sends Khvicha Kvaratskhelia Message of Support After ACL Injury for PSG Star

Cristiano Ronaldo and several PSG teammates offered support as the Georgia winger prepares for surgery and a likely long absence.

  • On Tuesday, Paris Saint-Germain winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia suffered a ruptured ACL during a 4-2 Champions League victory over Barcelona. He was helped off the pitch by two trainers unable to put weight on his leg.
  • Colliding with Xavi Espart caused the injury to his right knee during the match; the 25-year-old landed awkwardly when attempting a hip-check, buckling his knee before falling to the ground.
  • In an Instagram post, Kvaratskhelia promised to return stronger, writing "I know I have to come back stronger for my people who always have my back." This marks his first major injury since joining PSG.
  • Cristiano Ronaldo left a public message of support, writing "The hardest battles in football are often the ones nobody sees." PSG teammates including Marquinhos and Achraf Hakimi also commented with encouragement.
  • PSG confirmed the 25-year-old will have surgery "in the coming days" on his right knee. The Georgian international is expected to miss the remainder of the season, though no official recovery timeline has been provided.
