France and Paris St-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe will miss the first leg of his side’s Champions League last-16 game against Bayern Munich due to a thigh injury. The former AS Monaco forward was injured in Wednesday’s 3-1 win over Montpellier and has been ruled out for three weeks.
It proved to be a night to forget for the 24-year-old who missed two penalties and an open goal before being forced off after 21 minutes. Paris St-Germain host the German champions on Tuesday, 14 February.
Kylian Mbappe will also miss his side’s French Cup tie against Marseille on 8 February and a Ligue 1 game against Monaco three days later. The forward has scored 25 goals in 26 appearances for his club this season. The second leg against Bayern takes place in Germany on 8 March.
