Cristiano Ronaldo sends Khvicha Kvaratskhelia message of support after ACL injury for PSG star

Cristiano Ronaldo urged Kvaratskhelia to stay positive after PSG confirmed a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament that could sideline him for 9 to 12 months, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, Paris Saint-Germain winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during the 4-2 Champions League win over Barcelona. PSG confirmed the 25-year-old will undergo surgery in the coming days and miss the remainder of the season.
  • Manager Luis Enrique faces a personnel crisis after three key players exited the match with injuries, as medical updates confirmed Ousmane Dembele and captain Marquinhos sustained thigh injuries. Both are expected to remain under treatment for several weeks.
  • In a social media post, Kvaratskhelia expressed frustration, asking "why me?" while vowing to return stronger. The Georgian winger promised supporters he would endure the coming months of "labor, pain, tears" to recover from the season-ending setback.
  • Complete rehabilitation for a ruptured ACL typically requires nine to 12 months, casting doubt on the playmaker's availability for the next campaign. The Ballon d'Or nominee faces this setback just days before the award winner is announced on Friday.
  • While PSG bolstered its attacking options with summer additions Ferran Torres, Maghnes Akliouche, and Mika Godts, analysts note the team is weaker following the loss of their 25-year-old star. These recent signings now face immense pressure to sustain offensive output.
