Brazilian striker Neymar said he cried for two days after fracturing a metatarsal bone in his right foot at the end of January.
The star of Paris St-Germain will be present until April, after encountering the same problem during a Coupe de France match against Strasbourg.
It's the same injury that he suffered last February that put his World Cup in doubt, but this new move "is more complicated," Neymar said.
"This time, I struggled to overcome the problem," said the 27-year-old on Brazilian TV Globo.
"I spent two days crying at home.
"The first time I hurt myself, I said:" I'm going to have surgery, it needs to be repaired as soon as possible. "I was not sad . "
Last year, Neymar was absent three months after the operation, returning just in time to play in the World Cup, where he had scored two goals in the quarterfinals of Brazil.
This time, PSG medical staff opted for conservative treatment of the fracture rather than for another operation.
PSG announced that Neymar would be away for about 10 weeks, which would mean he would miss the Champions League first leg against Manchester United in 16, which led the French to a 2-0 win after the last week's first leg at Old Trafford. The second stage is in Paris on March 6th.
