PSG – Dembélé edging closer to return

Ousmane Dembélé, a 28-year-old forward for Paris Saint-Germain and the French National Team, has been injured with a right hamstring issue since the match against Ukraine on September 5 (2026 World Cup qualifiers). Recently, he has been in Doha (Qatar) for part of his recovery. This Saturday, L’Equipe provides an update on the purpose of this trip, his return to Paris, and the goal set for his comeback to competition.

Dembélé available for PSG/Strasbourg?

“On the agenda: treatment and reconditioning work alongside his usual physio team. The world champion, beyond this busy schedule, is taking advantage of his stay to undergo a series of physical and medical tests – with tools not available in Poissy. With a goal set for weeks: to be ready for the return from the international break. The idea, as it stands, is for the 2025 Ballon d’Or to be integrated into the group against Strasbourg on October 17. ‘Dembouz’ will not stay in Qatar during the international break. He is expected to return to Paris this Monday.”

The trip to Doha certainly allows for further refinement of Dembélé's treatment, as other Parisians have done in recent years. There is also the possibility of presenting the Ballon d’Or, which may have influenced the decision. But it is known that there are excellent facilities, and it is hoped that the forward will return ready to play consecutive matches this season.

As of October 17? It is not impossible; it is close to the date mentioned shortly after his injury. But it is well known that the Parisian staff is cautious, and there will be no rush. It is better to wait to have certainties.
