Miracle for PSG: key player returns for Atalanta Champions League tie

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, 24-year-old forward for Paris Saint-Germain, played only 29 minutes during the match against Lens this Sunday (Matchday 4 of Ligue 1) despite starting the game. The reason was a nasty blow to his calf. There was some concern at first, but since then, only good news has followed. RMC Sport confirms that medical tests suggest the Georgian will be ready for PSG/Atalanta this Wednesday evening (Matchday 1 of the Champions League).

“After Lucas Beraldo, the news is also good for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The latest tests are reassuring following the heavy tackle to the Georgian international’s left calf yesterday against Lens (2-0). The 24-year-old player could be fit for Wednesday’s match against Atalanta.”

This is a bit of a relief, even though we could reasonably hope for only a short absence, as Kvaratskhelia’s substitution seemed to be just the result of a knock. There was pain at the time, but it gave hope that a bit of rest would be enough. That’s what seems to be happening now. Let’s hope PSG can confirm this during an official medical update, perhaps this Tuesday.

We are also waiting for news on Lucas Beraldo (21-year-old defender) and Lee Kang-In (24-year-old midfielder/forward). For the former, the initial indications are positive, but there is still talk of an ankle sprain. For the latter, things remain very unclear.
