Paris Saint-Germain is concerned that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia may have ruptured the ACL in his right knee during their 4-2 win against FC Barcelona on October 20, 2026. The injury occurred before the hour mark after a collision with Barcelona's Xavi Espart, leaving Kvaratskhelia in visible pain. He was carried off the pitch and unable to put weight on his right foot.
