Golovin joined the Ligue 1 club last month on the back of his impressive World Cup but he did not feature in the Trophee des Champions last weekend when Paris Saint-Germain recorded a 4-0 victory over Monaco.

Monaco have confirmed on their website that Golovin has a "sprained right ankle" that he sustained in training, with the player revealing the extent of the injury.

"I have an ankle injury, the operation is not required," Golovin told Sport-Express.

"The process of recovery will take about three-to-four weeks."
