Just hours after Jesé had a brilliant debut with PSG, he will have to rest for three weeks.
The Spanish wingman was looking to establish himself as one of Unai Emery's top options up front for Les Parisiens, but the team's medical staff revealed the player will have to undergo an appendicitis surgery later today.
Rodríguez came on during the second half of the match between Bastia and the current Ligue 1 champions, and he proved to be crucial for the narrow 1-0 win, as his deflected shot was sent to the back of the net by Kurzawa.
The wingman shared his excitement with fans on social media prior to Friday's match.
"First match of the season, with high hopes. COME ON!!"
