Paris St Germain will be ⁠without right back Achraf Hakimi when they visit Bayern ‌Munich for the second leg of ‌their Champions League semi-final ‌next week due to a ‌thigh injury, the club said ‌on Wednesday.

Hakimi went down clutching his right thigh during Tuesday's ‌5-4 win in the ⁠first ‌leg, during which he assisted Khvicha ​Kvaratskhelia to score PSG's fourth goal, and the ​Morocco international will be sidelined for the next few weeks, ⁠the ​club said in a statement.

The 27-year-old completed the game as PSG had already made all ‌their substitutions while holding on to secure a one-goal advantage in the tie ahead of next Wednesday's return leg.

Goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, who last appeared for PSG in January, has also suffered a ‌thigh injury during Wednesday morning's ​training session and will miss ‌the next few weeks, the European champions added.

Ligue 1 leaders PSG will host Lorient on Saturday before flying ⁠to ⁠Munich.
