European champions Paris Saint-Germain have been rocked by the confirmation that star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
The French club have confirmed Kvaratskhelia, named Champions League player of the season last campaign after PSG won back-to-back European crowns, will undergo surgery in the coming days.
