with or without Dembélé in Nice, Luis Enrique maintains the mystery

The suspense remains. Sidelined before the match against Arsenal on Tuesday in London (2-0 defeat), Ousmane Dembélé returned to work with his little comrades on Friday. The day before, he had been allowed to return home due to angina. Will he be on the Allianz Riviera pitch to face Nice on Sunday (8:45 p.m.), during the seventh day of Ligue 1? “As I told you at the time of the events, when a player does not correspond to the obligations (towards the team), he is not ready. But when he meets the obligations, he is ready. This is true for all Ligue 1 players in fact.Luis Enrique first indicated at a press conference. A priori, “Dembouz” has returned to the ranks since the incidents of the last few days, a lively explanation after PSG-Rennes (3-1) and a delay in training, we say here and there. Which would suggest that the person concerned will be part of the group.

Asked to be more precise, the Spanish coach was in a loop: “Will he be in the group? I repeat: each player has a series of obligations to fulfill towards the team. Those who do it are there. If someone doesn’t do it tomorrow, especially if they make a serious mistake, I make the necessary decisions. It can be an easy or difficult decision, but I have no problem making decisions that may seem difficult because I always think of the good of the team. I could be wrong, that’s yet another subject. But what is clear is that I will make the decisions, no one will do it for me, it is my responsibility as coach of this team. As usual, Paris Saint-Germain should only unveil its squad on Sunday. Dembélé, 27, is the most decisive player this season for the Rouge et Bleu with four goals and three assists.
