PSG Weighs Dembélé Return Against Tottenham as Enrique Sets Training Condition

Luis Enrique signals a possible call-up contingent on a clean bill from training.

Overview

  • Dembélé trained with PSG on Tuesday and could be named to the squad if no further issues arise, the coach said.
  • The Ballon d'Or winner has started only five games this season and has not played since a left-calf injury ended his outing against Bayern on Nov. 4.
  • Luis Enrique emphasized extra caution in managing Dembélé’s reintegration after recent hamstring and calf problems.
  • PSG will be without Désiré Doué and Achraf Hakimi for the meeting with Tottenham.
  • PSG sit fifth in the Champions League league phase with nine points and Spurs are 10th with eight, with the top eight advancing directly to the last 16.
