Paris St Germain will be without right-back Achraf Hakimi when they visit Bayern Munich for the second leg of their Champions League semi-final next week due to a thigh injury, the club said on Wednesday.

Hakimi went ​down clutching his right thigh during Tuesday’s 5-4 win in the first leg, ​during which he assisted Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to ​score PSG’s fourth goal, and the Morocco international will be sidelined for the next few ​weeks, the club said in a ​statement.

The 27-year-old completed the game as PSG had ‌already ⁠made all their substitutions while holding on to secure a one-goal advantage in the tie ahead of next Wednesday’s ​return leg.

Goalkeeper ​Lucas Chevalier, ⁠who last appeared for PSG in January, has also ​suffered a thigh injury, during Wednesday ​morning’s ⁠training session and will miss the next few weeks, the European champions added.

Ligue ⁠1 ​leaders PSG will host ​Lorient on Saturday before flying to Munich.
