Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has released the latest injury update, revealing that their star player Vitinha will be out for several weeks with a hamstring injury.

The Brazilian winger was substituted in the second half of PSG's Ligue 1 match against Lille on Saturday and subsequently ruled out of the rest of the season due to the injury. The news comes as a disappointment for PSG, who were hoping to build on their impressive start to the season by securing a place in Europe's top competition.

Vitinha, who joined PSG from Manchester City last summer, has been one of the club's most exciting signings since his arrival. He made a positive impact in his first few games for PSG, scoring two goals in four matches before his injury.

The injury is not expected to affect PSG's title challenge this season, as they have already secured a spot in the Champions League group stage. However, it could impact their ability to qualify for next year's tournament, which is also important for PSG's long-term ambitions.

Despite the setback, PSG coach Thomas Tuchel remains optimistic about the future of the team. "We're disappointed for Vitinha, but we know he'll be back soon," he said. "He's a great player and I'm sure he'll come back stronger."

In the meantime, PSG will look to find a replacement for Vitinha in their squad. With the departure of Neymar Jr. at the end of the season, the French giants may need to invest heavily in new talent if they want to maintain their position as one of the top teams in Europe.
