Kylian Mbappe of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will miss his team’s Champions League round of 16 first-leg match against Bayern Munich due to a thigh injury.

The second match against Bayern will be played on March 8 in Germany. Mbappe is expected to be fit enough to play by then.
This season, the French forward has 25 goals in 26 games for his club.
