Neymar Jr. sustained a sprained ankle but no time frame was placed on his return by the club.
He scored and assisted in Sunday’s win over Lille before suffering an injury. It was his 18th goal of the season in 20 games so far.
PSG on Monday in a statement said: “Neymar suffered a sprained ankle during the game against Lille and underwent an MRI scan today. It did not reveal any fracture. A new ligament assessment will be carried out in 48 hours.”
The Brazilian international may however be out for three or four weeks on the sideline. This could automatically rule him out of the trip to the Allianz Arena on March 8.

Neymar has now missed 104 matches for PSG through injury or illness since joining the club in 2017.
He has been in and out of the squad and not only for his club but also country when he was forced to miss the last group match at the World Cup in Qatar due to injury.
PSG will travel to Allianz Arena with a one-goal deficit and hopes of overturning the tables.
They are on the verge of elimination in the round of 16 for the second consecutive season.
Last season, PSG lost 3-1 to eventual champions, Real Madrid and failed to proceed to the quarterfinals.
The Parisians lost 0-1 at home in the first leg with the only goal in the match scored by their former midfielder Kingsley Coman in the 53rd minute.
