Italy and Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti has only sprained his ankle with no fracture.

The 26-year-old limped off during the opening stages of their 9-0 victory over Guingamp on Saturday, as he fell awkwardly and his ankle was accidentally trodden on by Felix Eboa-Eboa.

Coach Thomas Tuchel immediately said he was concerned it was “a serious injury,” prompting some to assume there was a fracture or ligament damage.

“It’s not good news. I think he’s suffered a serious injury,” Tuchel told Canal+.
