Ousmane Dembélé n’est pas dans le
Groupe pour affronter Arsenal comme annoncé par RMC pour décision disciplinaire. Luis Enrique et le Français ont eu une explication musclée après le match de Rennes que n’a apprécié l’Espagnol.
— Loïc Tanzi (@Tanziloic) September 30, 2024Ousmane Dembélé is not in the Arsenal squad as announced by RMC due to a disciplinary decision. Luis Enrique and the Frenchman had a heated exchange after the Rennes match, which the Spaniard didn’t appreciate.
Nothing is impossible, Luis Enrique has character and strong principles. And that’s exactly what PSG were asking for in previous years. If Dembélé hasn’t had the right reaction to his coach’s remarks, a sanction is possible.
Even if everyone knows that the French international could have been a great asset for this match. The club and the team come first. So, even if it doesn’t really matter, PSG has other options for its team.
