International Slovak and Paris Saint-Germain defender Milan Škriniar underwent a successful surgery today at Aspetar Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Hospital in Doha, Qatar. The procedure, performed by Dr. Pieter D’Hooghe, Chief Medical Officer and Orthopaedic Surgeon at Aspetar, addressed an injury sustained by Škriniar during last week's Super Cup France match.

Following his arrival in Doha yesterday, Škriniar successfully completed the surgery earlier today. He is now recovering comfortably and is expected to begin his rehabilitation process shortly.

Aspetar has a long-standing partnership with Paris Saint-Germain, serving as the official medical provider for the French capital club. Numerous PSG players have benefited from the hospital's world-class facilities and medical expertise over the years.
