The problem is turning into a serious concern for PSG. After the bad news about Kvaratskhelia, who according to reports has ended his season, Dembélé will also be forced to temporarily halt his activity.
The French forward had to leave the pitch just 20 minutes after the start of the match against Barcelona, after feeling discomfort during a sprint. Medical examinations revealed an injury to his left hip flexor, with a recovery period expected to last around three weeks.
This situation makes his return before November 11 difficult, while attention will also turn to the French national team’s commitments. France is expected to face Italy on November 12 at San Siro, before the match against Turkey on November 15 in Bordeaux.
PSG do not want to risk Dembélé’s return. The coaching and medical staff are expected to closely monitor the recovery process, aiming for the forward to return to the pitch only when he is fully ready. An early return could cause a recurrence of the injury and sideline the player for an even longer period.
