Paris Saint-Germain winger Ousmane Dembélé has suffered a fresh injury setback and is set to undergo medical tests in the coming hours to determine the extent of the problem. The French international picked up the issue during PSG’s latest outing, sparking concerns among fans given his history of muscular injuries.

Dembélé, who joined PSG from Barcelona in the summer of 2023, was forced to leave the pitch earlier than expected after signaling discomfort. Club sources have confirmed that medical staff will carry out scans and further examinations to assess the severity. At first glance, the player himself suggested that the situation may not be too serious. “It doesn’t seem too serious,” Dembélé remarked when asked about his condition, though PSG will wait for test results before making any official statement.

The 27-year-old forward has endured several injury setbacks throughout his career, both at Barcelona and with the French national team. His electric pace and dribbling ability make him one of Europe’s most dangerous wingers, but repeated hamstring and muscle issues have often interrupted his rhythm.

PSG head coach Luis Enrique will be keeping a close eye on the results, as Dembélé has become an important part of the squad since his arrival. Any potential absence could affect the team’s attacking depth as they continue to compete in Ligue 1 and prepare for Champions League fixtures.

Fans of both PSG and France will hope the setback proves to be minor, especially with a busy stretch of matches ahead. France manager Didier Deschamps will also be monitoring the situation closely, with international fixtures scheduled in the upcoming FIFA window.

For now, PSG supporters are left waiting anxiously for clarity. While early signs are somewhat encouraging given Dembélé’s own words, his past struggles with fitness mean the club will take no chances. The results of his tests will determine whether he faces another spell on the sidelines or can return quickly to action.
