According to Daily Mail, the former Barcelona star was initially checked by Parisian's medical team before flying him to Spain for further assessments.

The publication further reveals that a team of medical experts insisted that Neymar does not require surgery on the problem but will miss about next 10 weeks of action.

He transported to the airport in Barcelona in a black private taxi on Thursday afternoon and appeared to struggle to get out of the car.

His absence will come as a huge blow for the French giants who have some important fixtures coming up.

Neymar will not be available for PSG when they battle Man United on February 12 and the return leg on March 6.

He will also miss key league clashes against Lyon, St Etienne and Montpellier during the period of his recuperation.
