Gianluigi Donnarumma provided an update on social media after a scary injury against Monaco on Wednesday.
The Italian keeper wrote on X: 'Tutto bene', which roughly translates to 'Everything's fine', above a photo of him smiling on his sofa with a large plaster on his face.
Donnarumma had saved an effort from Wilfried Singo in the first half of the match at the Stade Louis II.
He was struck in the face by the boot of Singo after making the save, suffering multiple cuts to his face.
The 25-year-old required medical attention following the collision, but was ultimately forced off in the 22nd minute to be replaced by Matvei Safonov.
Donnarumma reportedly required 10 staples following the cuts on his right cheek and walked off the pitch after being treated by PSG's medical staff.

'Sending our best wishes to Gigio, who suffered a serious facial injury and had to leave the match in the first half,' PSG wrote on social media.
Singo avoided punishment for the challenge from referee Francois Letexier for his challenge on Donnaruma.
The Monaco defender escaped a second yellow card having already been booked in the 14th minute for a foul on Desire Doue.
After the game, Singo took to social media to apologise for the incident, which he insisted was unintentional, and wish Donnarumma a smooth recovery.
'My gesture was obviously not intentional, but I was able to see afterwards that he had a significant injury to his face,' he wrote, in a message posted in both French and Italian. 'I wish you a good recovery.'
