Laurent Blanc: 'Yohan Cabaye injury is not serious'

Laurent Blanc says that the ankle injury Yohan Cabaye suffered against Lille on Saturday is not serious, calming fears that he might miss the World Cup.

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has said that the ankle injury that Yohan Cabaye suffered in their 3-1 win over Lille on Saturday is not serious.

Cabaye was stretchered off following a challenge from Marvin Martin, which led to the Lille player being sent off.

There were fears that the Frenchman might miss the World Cup, which kicks off in Brazil next month.

Blanc told reporters: "The ankle is very swollen, but obviously it was more fear than harm. I didn't see it but yes I was scared. Obviously he must have been thinking of the World Cup."

Cabaye has been at PSG since January, after making a reported £19m move from Newcastle United.
