Paris Saint-Germain star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia surprised supporters with a lighthearted remark about stepping away from football for the next half-year.

Details: During a recent live stream, the 25-year-old Georgian international addressed his lengthy spell on the sidelines with humor, announcing that he is temporarily trading the pitch for a gaming chair.

"So now I am not a football player anymore guys. For 6 months I am gonna be streaming," Kvaratskhelia told viewers on his broadcast.

The PSG forward is currently in the early stages of recovery after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee during Paris Saint-Germain's 4-2 UEFA Champions League victory over Barcelona in October.

On October 27, the French champions confirmed that Kvaratskhelia underwent successful surgery at ASPETAR Hospital in Doha, Qatar, and has begun a rehabilitation program expected to keep him out for around six months.
