PSG captain Marquinhos out with thigh injury
Saturday, 27 September 2025
PARIS, Sept 26 (AFP): Club captain Marquinhos has joined the growing list of big-name absentees for Paris Saint-Germain after suffering a thigh issue, the European champions announced on Friday.
The 31-year-old Brazilian defender "will undergo treatment on a left thigh injury over the next few weeks", PSG announced on their website.
The latest injury blow for Luis Enrique's side comes in the wake of injuries to stars Joao Neves and Desire Doue, as well as recent Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele.
PSG did not specify when Marquinhos picked up the injury, with the centre-half playing the full 90 minutes of his side's last outing -- a 1-0 defeat at arch-rivals Marseille on Monday in which Marquinhos scored an own goal.
