Paris Saint-Germain may once again have to cope without Ousmane Dembélé. The 28-year-old winger was forced off early during the 3-2 victory over AS Monaco in the Champions League play-offs.

Suffering from a muscle issue, Dembélé left the pitch after just 26 minutes of play. Medical tests will now determine the severity of the injury. Unfortunately, the French international has been plagued by physical setbacks in recent seasons. In Paris, there is genuine concern as everyone awaits the medical verdict.
