Neymar out for 10 weeks, misses United clash

PARIS, Jan 30 (Reuters): Paris St Germain's Champions League chances have suffered a major setback with their talismanic forward Neymar ruled out for 10 weeks with a foot injury on Wednesday.

The Brazilian, who has a fractured metatarsal, will miss the Ligue 1 side's last 16 tie against Manchester United, although he could be fit for a potential quarter-final in April.

The first leg against United is scheduled for Old Trafford on February 12 with the return in Paris on March 06.

PSG said in a statement that the 26-year-old Neymar, who left the field in tears after suffering the injury in a French Cup game against Strasbourg on Jan. 23, will not have surgery after the club consulted "world renowned experts" on Tuesday.
