PSG News: Dembélé and Hakimi Injury Details Revealed

Paris Saint-Germain faces a significant injury crisis following their Champions League encounter against Bayern Munich on Tuesday night. Two of the club’s key players—forward Ousmane Dembélé and right-back Achraf Hakimi—sustained injuries during the match, forcing both players off the field. While PSG has yet to issue an official statement, French media outlet RMC Sport has provided detailed information about their conditions.

Hakimi’s Severe Ankle Injury Requires Extended Recovery

According to RMC Sport, Achraf Hakimi has suffered a severe ankle sprain affecting his left ankle with damaged medial ligaments. The 27-year-old defender is expected to miss between six to eight weeks of action, making him a significant loss for PSG’s defensive setup. Fortunately, imaging confirmed no fracture, which could have potentially prolonged his absence further. The extent of this injury will impact PSG’s right-back options throughout the critical period ahead.

Dembélé Out for Lyon Clash and National Team Duty

The 28-year-old forward Ousmane Dembélé has been diagnosed with a calf injury, a less severe condition compared to Hakimi’s situation. Dembélé will be unavailable for PSG’s upcoming match against Lyon this Sunday and has also been ruled out for French national team commitments. However, there is optimism he could return relatively sooner than his defensive colleague, potentially becoming available after the international break.

While these details come from reliable reporting rather than official club confirmation, the precision of RMC Sport’s claims suggests solid sourcing. PSG fans remain hopeful for positive updates, though the injury timeline may provide some breathing room with the upcoming international fixture pause.
