Striker Ousmane Dembele caused concern among PSG fans when he unexpectedly suffered an injury during the derby against Paris FC in the final round of Ligue 1 on the morning of May 18th.

In the match against Paris FC, Dembele only played for 28 minutes before being substituted and heading straight into the tunnel. Coach Luis Enrique was forced to bring on Goncalo Ramos as a replacement before the first half was even over.

According to television commentators, the French player complained that his body was "quite uncomfortable" and he was unable to sprint as usual. Although PSG has not made an official announcement, images of Dembele limping off the pitch immediately caused concern among fans of the Parisian club.

PSG's disappointment was compounded by their 1-2 defeat to Paris FC. Enrique's team conceded an equalizer in the 75th minute before losing the decisive goal in the third minute of added time. This was a significant shock, especially considering PSG were focusing all their attention on the Champions League final against Arsenal.

Dembele is currently the most important player in PSG's attack. The 2026 Ballon d'Or winner was recently voted the best player in Ligue 1 with 10 goals and 7 assists in 22 appearances in the domestic league.

In the Champions League, the 29-year-old striker has also maintained impressive form. He has scored 7 goals in the European competition this season, including 6 in the knockout stages. Dembele scored against Chelsea in the round of 16 before scoring a brace against Liverpool and Bayern Munich in the following rounds.

The prospect of Dembele missing the Champions League final is clearly good news for manager Mikel Arteta and Arsenal. The English side are aiming for their first ever title after an impressive run against Bayer Leverkusen, Sporting CP, and Atletico Madrid.
