Trains fully, likely to start
Dembele (calf) trained fully Tuesday and is on track to start Saturday's Champions League final against Arsenal, the club posted.
Analysis: Dembele had been forced off as a precaution during Sunday's season finale against Paris FC with calf discomfort, but the positive update he provided earlier in the week is now backed up by his full participation in Tuesday's session. PSG will be relieved to have their most important attacking player available for the showpiece final since the Ballon d'Or contributed 17 goals and nine assists in 34 appearances (21 starts) across all competitions this season.
Final availability confirmed
Dembele (calf) has further reinforced that he will be an option for Saturday's match against Arsenal, the player told M6, per Alex Young of the Standard. "I feel much better than on Sunday. I had a little scare, but the doctor told me there was nothing to worry about. I felt a slight discomfort, and I preferred not to take any risks. I will be back on the pitch on May 30."
Analysis: Dembele was already looking to be an option for Saturday, but has further reinforced his availability, as the forward once again told the media he would be fit. This is major news for the club as they look for a UCL repeat, as they may already be without other stars like Achraf Hakimi (thigh). More importantly, it will leave him fit for the World Cup, set to possibly be another few big months for Dembele.
