Wassim Slama, a 17-year-old attacking midfielder for Paris Saint-Germain (contract until 2026), was at the U17 World Cup with Tunisia when he suffered a major setback. During the match against Belgium, the young player had to be stretchered off due to a worrying twist in his left knee. The diagnosis was confirmed: he has a ruptured cruciate ligament.
“Our young Eagle, Wassim Slama, has suffered a ruptured cruciate ligament in his left knee.
We wish him a speedy recovery.”
This is terrible for Slama, who was really making his mark at PSG, even training with the first team and receiving a few call-ups to official matches. He was also having a great U17 World Cup. We can only wish the Parisian youngster courage and a speedy recovery, as his season is likely over.
