French media: Douai will be absent for a few weeks, and Paris hopes that he will return before the end of the year and no later than January.

October 31st rmcsport reported that in Wednesday’s Ligue 1 match, Paris Saint-Germain and Lorient drew 1-1. In the 61st minute of the game, 20-year-old French international Desire Douai was taken off the field on a stretcher due to an injury to his right thigh. Although he did not perform well in the game, the injury obviously caused a lot of trouble for him.

Previously, Douai had missed the entire September due to calf problems. However, Paris Saint-Germain released encouraging news on Thursday, saying his injury was not as serious as initially feared.

According to the latest news from the club, Douai was injured in yesterday's game and was diagnosed with a right thigh muscle injury. Fortunately, the injury was not as serious as initially expected. The club said: "He will miss a few weeks of games." However, a specific return date has not yet been determined.

It is understood that Paris hopes that the player can return to the game before the end of 2025, and no later than January 2026. This means that Douai may catch up with the last two games of the Champions League group stage, against Sporting CP (January 20) and Newcastle (January 28).

During this period, Douai will miss many of Paris Saint-Germain's next important games, including the key battle against Bayern Munich next Tuesday and the home game against Tottenham on November 26. In addition, he was unable to participate in many Ligue 1 games, such as the away game against Lyon on November 9 and the away game against Monaco on November 29.
