ousmane Dembélé is targeting a return to action by November 26th, potentially in Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League match against Tottenham Hotspur, according to Le Parisien. The winger sustained a left calf injury during Tuesday’s 1-2 defeat to Bayern Munich, ruling him out of this weekend’s Ligue 1 fixture against Olympique Lyonnais and the current international break with the French national team.
The injury is a setback for both PSG and France, as Dembélé has become a key player for both sides. His absence leaves PSG without a significant attacking threat as they navigate a busy schedule, while Les Bleus manager Didier Deschamps has already excluded him from the upcoming squad. A recovery timeline of approximately three weeks is currently projected, though the report notes this remains optimistic.
Dembélé’s injury occurred during the match at Parc des Princes, limiting his playing time to just a few minutes. The club has not yet released an official return date, but Le parisien’s reporting suggests the November 26th date against Tottenham is the current goal.
A summary of the situation: Dembélé suffered a left calf injury against Bayern Munich,will miss the PSG-OL match and the French national team gathering. He is potentially slated to return near the end of November for the Champions League game against Tottenham, representing an absence of roughly three weeks.
