Shock with Dembele

Ousmane Dembele faces the risk of missing the FIFA Club World Cup.

According to Le Parisien , Dembele left the French national team camp on June 6 and is almost certain to miss all three of PSG's group stage matches at the tournament held in the US. He will miss the opening match against Atletico Madrid on June 15, followed by matches against Botafogo and Seattle Sounders. It is expected that this player will only be able to return to play in early July.

This is a big shock for coach Luis Enrique - who expected Dembele to be one of PSG's pillars in their ambition to win the title in the new tournament organized by FIFA. The loss of the player who was just voted "Best Player of the Champions League" will certainly greatly affect the attacking strength of the capital team.

In France, the decision to play Dembele immediately after a tense Champions League campaign also caused controversy. He spent a lot of time celebrating with PSG in Paris, which led to a significant decline in his physical and mental health. Continuing to play in a harsh competition environment like the Nations League made the former Barca star's injury risk a reality.

However, according to Le Parisien , PSG will not be in the transfer market to replace Dembele, despite FIFA opening a "special transfer window" for the FIFA Club World Cup until June 10. Coach Luis Enrique still has faith in the available options in the squad. The good news is that Barcola - who also withdrew from the French team due to a knee injury - is likely to return in time for the opening match.

In addition to Dembele and Barcola, France have suffered a blow in defence as Atletico Madrid centre-back Clement Lenglet has withdrawn with a hip injury. He suffered the injury during the match against Spain and an MRI scan confirmed the severity of the injury. Lenglet will not play against Germany in the Nations League and has been sent back to his club for treatment.

For PSG, the journey at the FIFA Club World Cup - already a big challenge - is now even more difficult without one of their strategic players.

Dembele could return in early July, but by then it could be too late. If PSG fail to get out of the group stages, his dream of winning a world title will be shattered again - and with it his hopes of getting any closer to the coveted Ballon d'Or.
