A few days before a capital PSG/Manchester City, the Parisian infirmary is sending mixed signals: Marquinhos is better, Dembélé not really and Hakimi's situation is unclear.
PSG emerged victorious from Lens this Saturday, even if it was very difficult, and we will have to monitor the state of the Parisians after this match marked by several interventions by the trainers. Nuno Mendes had received treatment on his ankle at the end of the first period and was able to continue without problem, Warren Zaire-Emery finished the match after another ankle problem, but gritted his teeth and seemed well affected. Three days from PSG/Manchester City, these are cases to watch.
Better for Marquinhos, not for Dembélé
But aside from Lens/PSG, the Parisian infirmary had some good names to manage since no risks had been taken with several important players. Absent for three matches now due to an adductor problem, Marquinhos was on the lawns of the PSG Campus this Saturday training with rookie Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, not qualified for City, and Milan Skriniar, once again left out. Good news for the Parisian captain who until then had been working individually. The three men are visible in the PSG video showing Kvara's first steps at the PSG Campus:
On the other hand, Ousmane Dembele's was not present with them. Excellent against Saint-Etienne last Sunday (2-1), the winger had to withdraw from the last two matches due to a « syndrome viral ». As revealed by a well-known Parisian insider, Dembélé suffers from an illness that many French people experience at this time of year, namely the flu. And that of winter 2025 is tough, putting the player on forced rest while the match against City arrives quickly. A package has not yet been confirmed, but Dembélé is seriously weakened.
-Hakimi not injured but…
The last absence that weighs on PSG is that of Achraf Judgesurprise absence this Saturday. PSG made a reassuring speech before the match, ensuring that it was “preserved” in view of the coming shock. But the speech given by Luis Enrique at a press conference about him after the victory in Lens was slightly disturbing: “To be honest, I don't know if I can tell you about it, but it's nothing serious anyway. We didn't want to take any risks. »
Like the club earlier in the day, the coach then assured that “it’s not really medical because he’s not injured”but struggled to clearly describe the situation: “During the last training session, he experienced a strange situation, a little doubtful, and as Hakimi has already had a lot of playing time, we preferred to rest him. » No injury therefore, but a situation also to be monitored as the Moroccan is having his best season in Paris and has become an indispensable part of the team.
