More bad news hits PSG again!

Matvey Safonov, the 26-year-old goalkeeper for Paris Saint-Germain, paid for his remarkable performance against Flamengo in the Intercontinental Cup before the winter break with a hand injury. Indeed, the keeper suffered a hand fracture while saving four penalty shots. And, according to L’Equipe, he will be out for longer than initially expected.

"Safonov is still wearing a protection that prevents him from using his left hand."

"According to initial forecasts, the Russian goalkeeper was expected to be sidelined for 3 to 4 weeks. The timeline has now been extended. It will likely take five to six weeks before the former FK Krasnodar keeper is operational again. Although he has resumed training (running, shooting), Safonov is still wearing a protection that prevents him from using his left hand."

This is, of course, bad news if it is confirmed. Let’s remain cautious, as we have already seen the media make mistakes regarding the length of an injury or a return date. However, it is quite possible that Safonov will not be able to play soon. Each injury requires careful attention, and we know that the Parisian staff is always very cautious.

In any case, Lucas Chevalier (24 years old) will have to seize this opportunity to show his form, as Safonov has undoubtedly scored points in the competition.
