Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser revealed in an interview that Kvaratshelia was injured in training before the Champions League final.
Chairman Nasser said: "Kvaratshylia had an accident during training and needed help from the team doctor. My heartbeat at that time 200 times per minute. Director Campos told me that we had no injuries during training throughout the season. At that time, Kvaratshylia could no longer walk by himself, and I saw them carrying him away. After the training, I asked coach Enrique and he said, 'If Kvaratshylia is fine, he will play; if he can't play, other players will play.'"
Nasle continued: "We wanted Kvaratskhelia not to participate in the pre-Champions League finals on Friday, but he refused. Coach Enrique also told me that 'Even if only one leg is left, he would want to play. This is the spirit we brought in, they love football. After the training, they will continue to play together like children. Football is their life.'"
In the end, Kvaratskhelia started in the Champions League final and scored a goal.
