PSG Defender Skriniar to Undergo Ankle Surgery, Faces Weeks Out

Injury could rule him out of Champions League round-of-16 contest against Real Sociedad, leaving PSG with limited options in central defense.

Paris Saint-Germain defender Milan Skriniar will need an operation after dislocating his left ankle during the French Champions Trophy final win over Toulouse.
The operation will take place next week in Qatar, and it is estimated that Skriniar will be out for several weeks.
Skriniar's injury could potentially rule him out of both legs of the Champions League round-of-16 contest against Real Sociedad.
PSG is already without central defender Presnel Kimpembe, who is recovering from an Achilles tendon operation, leaving coach Luis Enrique with limited options in central defense.
PSG may have to buy a player during the January transfer window to cover for the injured defenders.
