Report: Dembélé Hamstring Injury Expected to Sideline PSG Forward for Six Weeks

The six-week absence is an estimate reported by journalist Fabrice Hawkins, not an official diagnosis.

Overview

  • Ousmane Dembélé sustained a hamstring problem while playing for France against Ukraine, according to reporting relaying Fabrice Hawkins.
  • Hawkins reports the winger is expected to be out around six weeks, which would rule him out of PSG’s Champions League opener against Atalanta and a Ligue 1 match with OM.
  • If that timeline holds, Dembélé would also miss PSG’s October 1 trip to face former club Barcelona in Catalunya.
  • The reporting does not include medical confirmation from PSG or the French federation regarding the injury or its duration.
  • The setback follows a treble-winning season at PSG that put Dembélé in Ballon d’Or contention, after he recently reflected on his injury-hit Barcelona years in an interview with FourFourTwo.
