7M - Injury Scare for Dembele Ahead of Champions League Final
Posted Monday, May 18, 2026 by 7M Sport

Paris Saint Germain faces an anxious wait regarding the physical condition of Ousmane Dembele just days before the UEFA Champions League final against Arsenal. The French winger was forced to leave the pitch only 27 minutes into the final Ligue 1 match of the season against Paris FC after experiencing discomfort in his left leg. He was subsequently replaced in attack by Portuguese forward Goncalo Ramos.
While the substitution was initially described as a precautionary measure to avoid taking unnecessary risks with the Ballon dOr winner, the images immediately sparked concern. Dembele has been a fundamental component of Luis Enriques tactical system throughout the campaign, providing critical pace and creativity during the key stages of their European run. The club medical staff will conduct further evaluations in the coming hours to determine the exact nature and severity of the muscle issue.
The situation is also being closely monitored by the French national team. With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, Dembele is expected to play a major role for France, making his physical fitness a matter of high priority for both club and country.
