PSG Receive Good News Ahead of UCL Final Against Arsenal

)

Despite leaving PSG’s final league game with discomfort, the reigning Ballon d’Or winner stated he intends to play in the Champions League final against the Gunners. Moreover, the French standout noted that he also didn’t want to take any chances, given what’s at stake at the end of this month.

“It’s much better than on Sunday,” Dembélé told the French outlet M6 (h/t Le10Sport). “I had a small scare, but the doctor told me there’s nothing to worry about. It’s my calf. I had a slight tightness in my calf and I preferred not to take any risks. Yes, I’ll be there on the 30th, don’t worry…

“I have no doubt about it. I hope to be on the pitch on May 30 if the coach selects me, of course. I’ve had so many small scares or serious injuries in my career, whether here at PSG or before, especially with big matches coming up, and this final in particular. I preferred to stop and not take any risks.”
