PSG’s Potential Starting XI: Who Will Step in for Ousmane Dembélé Against Arsenal? | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain made a major announcement on Monday before their upcoming match against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday. The club left Ousmane Dembélé out of the squad traveling to North London.

According to RMC Sport, Dembélé’s exclusion is tied to disciplinary reasons following a heated exchange with manager Luis Enrique after the game against Rennes.

This is a big hit to PSG’s attack, especially given the form the 27-year-old has shown this season. Dembélé has already contributed four goals and four assists in just seven matches across all competitions, and that kind of production will be hard for the team to replace.

Now, the question regarding the Ligue 1 side is who manager Luis Enrique will be using for his starting XI for this marquee matchup on Matchday 2.

L’Equipe: Gianluigi Donnarumma – Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho, Nuno Mendes – João Neves, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Fabián Ruiz – Bradley Barcola, Marco Asensio, and Kang-in Lee

Le Parisien: Gianluigi Donnarumma – Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Willian Pacho, Nuno Mendes – João Neves, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Fabián Ruiz or Vitinha – Bradley Barcola, Randal Kolo Muani, and Kang-in Lee

It’ll be interesting to see how Enrique replaces the Frenchman, as it will take a team effort for PSG to walk away from the Emirates Stadium with a positive result.
