Great news for Kvaratskhelia! Is his return getting closer?
The most difficult first step is behind Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Details: Paris Saint-Germain have confirmed that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has successfully undergone surgery after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The operation was carried out at a clinic in Doha, Qatar.
The procedure was successful, and the 25-year-old Georgian winger will now begin his rehabilitation programme. PSG have not announced an official date for his return to competitive football.
Kvaratskhelia suffered the serious injury during Paris Saint-Germain's 4-2 Champions League victory over Barcelona on October 20. He was unable to continue and left the pitch before subsequent examinations confirmed a torn ACL in his right knee.
For now, the key news for both the player and PSG is that the surgery has been completed without complications and the long recovery process can begin. With such an injury, the club and Kvaratskhelia's entourage are avoiding setting a precise return date.
It is worth noting that Kvaratskhelia finished sixth in the 2026 Ballon d'Or voting. Last season, he was also named the Champions League Player of the Season after helping PSG to European glory.
