PSG: Luis Enrique raises concerns over Dembélé’s situation
Indeed, ahead of the clash with Strasbourg, Luis Enrique appeared in his press conference with notable caution, especially regarding Ousmane Dembélé. The French winger, sidelined for several days due to injury, is still not ready to return, and the Spanish coach made sure to temper expectations.
"I don’t know how many days he’ll be out,"
he admitted to the journalists, leaving the exact date of Dembélé’s comeback shrouded in uncertainty.
Fully aware of the player’s importance in his system, Luis Enrique explained that the Parisian staff are determined not to take any unnecessary risks.
"We’re trying not to jeopardize the players’ health. Injuries are part of top-level football. When we get players back and they return to training, it’s easier to see if they’re ready,"
he added.
The former Spain national team manager, true to his philosophy, prefers to wait until his winger has completely regained his form before reintegrating him into the squad. PSG, already facing a demanding schedule between Ligue 1 and the Champions League, has no intention of rushing back a key piece of their attacking line.
