During the Champions League semi-final first leg win over Arsenal 0-1, 27-year-old striker Ousmane Dembélé went off injured. Despite a slight muscular injury, he should be available for the second leg at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday. This will be tested in training on Monday, as Djamel confirms.
“Ousmane Dembélé didn’t take part in today’s collective training session, but tomorrow he’ll test himself during the group session.
His injury is progressing well, and the pain has eased.
Highly motivated by what’s at stake, he wants to continue his role as a major contributor to this campaign and take the team to the final – with the clear aim of making history by winning the club’s first Champions League. ”
Good news for PSG and Luis Enrique, who will no doubt be keeping the suspense alive right to the end. It has to be said that playing in a Champions League semi-final comes along very rarely in one’s career. So there’s no doubt that even if Dembélé is slightly uncomfortable, he’ll do his utmost to be with the team.
At the Parc des Princes, the capital club can make history by reaching the final in Munich. It will be a very tough match, against an Arsenal team with nothing left to lose. But PSG have already proved themselves capable of great feats this season, so it’s up to them to create a new one.
