This Tuesday, Paris Saint-Germain travel to Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal in the semi-finals of the Champions League 2024-2025. The match saw a precious 0-1 victory for PSG, but also a muscle scare for Ousmane Dembélé. The 27-year-old striker felt pain in his hamstrings. Tests were due to be carried out on Wednesday, but L’Equipe reports that nothing will happen for the time being.
“Dembélé should then test himself.
“Ousmane Dembélé will not be taking any tests this Wednesday after all.
According to medical sources, Paris has decided to wait and see how the striker feels over the next few days. Resting on Wednesday, the Parisians will resume training on Thursday at 5pm. Dembélé should then test himself to see if the pain has completely disappeared and, depending on the results, may or may not undergo further tests.
Some sources are already confident that the Frenchman will be able to take his place next Wednesday at the Parc des Princes for the return leg. “
A simple pain that quickly goes away would be very good news for PSG and Dembélé. Even if it does call for a little caution. It’s safe to assume that he won’t be playing in Strasbourg this Saturday (Ligue 1 matchday 32).
But let’s wait and see before rejoicing over his return. We need official news to be sure. We’ve already seen the media miss the mark when it comes to injuries in recent years. But this is a time for optimism.
