“Nothing positive, when you change a player for a slightly dangerous action, you have to wait for the tests and we’ll see”. These were the words of Luis Enrique when he was questioned about Vitinha by journalists after his team’s match against OL, which ended with a 2-1 victory for the Rhodaniens. It must be said that the Portuguese midfielder was replaced shortly before half-time, after a poor reception following contact with Endrick.
And the Spanish coach looked particularly worried. Which surprises no one, since the importance of the Portuguese midfielder in the Parisian midfield is no longer in doubt, he who is even considered by many to be the world reference in his position. Especially since the big meetings are coming, especially in Europe, with this first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Bayern (Tuesday 28 at 9 p.m.) which is already looking good. Suffice it to say that Lucho hopes to be able to count on the former Porto player for this shock at the top, as well as for this race for the Ligue 1 title, where PSG is leader with a point ahead of Lens and a game in hand.
News will fall during the day
As indicated France Infoboth the Spanish coach and the player should be fixed today. The 26-year-old midfielder will have an MRI during the day to find out the severity of his injury. The media does not say more about potential bad news in this matter, but makes it clear that there is concern around the player. On social networks, Parisian supporters have also expressed their concern about a possible withdrawal of one of their favorites for this final sprint of the season.
Suffice to say that it seems difficult to imagine him playing against Nantes on Wednesday evening, during this match postponed from the 26th day of Ligue 1 at the Parc des Princes, even if the MRI concludes that the Portuguese’s injury is not serious. Then, this weekend, PSG will travel to Angers, before challenging Bayern Munich. Suffice it to say that in Paris, we are crossing our fingers that Vitinha’s injury is as less serious as possible…
