Désiré Doué was forced off on a stretcher during PSG’s 1-1 draw against Lorient in Ligue 1 on Wednesday evening.
The 20-year-old playmaker went down off the ball, clutching the back of his leg amid a potential muscular injury.
## What happened?
He was replaced by Bradley Barcola in the 62nd minute of the match.
The France international attacking midfielder suffered a groin injury while representing Les Bleus during the September international break.
## Why it matters for Désiré Doué
Doué’s injury, as well as an injury to Ousmane Dembélé, whilst on international duty, led to the Ligue 1 champions writing to the FFF about the usage of their players.
The Frenchman recently returned to action after 6 matches out due to the groin injury.
## What comes next?
Les Parisiens will be hoping that the former Rennes attacking midfielder has not further aggravated the groin injury that made him unavailable in September.
And the prognosis of the 20-year-old’s injury is yet to be made.
But PSG will be closely monitoring his condition to determine the extent of the injury.
So the club's medical team will conduct further tests to assess the damage.
Désiré Doué had been in good form before the injury, playing a key role in PSG's attack.
The injury is a concern for PSG, who are currently competing in Ligue 1 and other competitions.
