Paris Saint-Germain are facing growing injury concerns ahead of their UEFA Champions League final against Arsenal FC, with star players Ousmane Dembélé and Achraf Hakimi both doubtful for the showdown in Budapest.
Manager Luis Enrique has seen preparations disrupted after both players missed a recent in-house training match. Hakimi remains in a race against time to recover from a thigh injury suffered during the semi-final against Bayern Munich, while Dembele is being carefully managed after picking up a minor knock in domestic action.
Hakimi’s absence would be a major tactical blow, given his pace and attacking influence from right-back, while Dembele’s creativity and dribbling are seen as vital to PSG’s attacking threat. Club medical staff are closely monitoring both players ahead of final fitness assessments later this week.
Meanwhile, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is reportedly keeping a close eye on PSG’s injury situation as the English side prepare to exploit any weakness in the French champions’ setup.
With the Champions League final approaching at Puskás Aréna, PSG now face an anxious wait to determine whether two of their biggest stars will be fit for the biggest match of the season.
