Paris Saint-Germain forward Ousmane Dembele, who suffered a hamstring injury in last week’s clash with Arsenal, has been given the greenlight to play in the Champions League semi-final second leg against Arsenal, PSG coach Luis Enrique announced today at the press conference.
Dembele went off in the 70th minute of the first leg at the Emirates Stadium, after netting the only goal of the game in the fourth minute, thereby making the coach to say after the match that there was “a doubt” over him playing in Wednesday’s return match.
He missed Saturday’s Ligue 1 defeat against Strasbourg but resumed training at the start of the week.
“He’s been training with us for the last two days,” said Luis Enrique. “You saw him today, a normal training session for him. He’ll be available tomorrow.”
The France international has been PSG’s star performer this season, scoring 33 goals in all competitions.
South Korean midfielder Lee Kang-in also took part in the team training session following the knock he received in the game against Strasbourg.
