Injured Paris St-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe will miss the Champions League quarter-final with Atalanta in Lisbon on 12 August.
Mbappe, 21, sustained an ankle injury during the French Cup final against Saint-Etienne on Friday, ruling him out for three weeks.
He could return for the semi-final on 18 August, if PSG qualify.
Scans confirmed "an ankle sprain with damage to the external ligament", the club said.
