Paris Saint-Germain forward Ousmane Dembele, who suffered a
hamstring injury last week, has been passed fit to play in their Champions
League semi-final second leg against Arsenal, coach Luis Enrique said on
Tuesday.
Dembele came off in the 70th minute of the first leg in London,
after scoring the only goal of the game in the fourth minute, prompting the
coach to suggest after the match that there was "a doubt" over his
chances of playing in Wednesday's return match.
He missed Saturday's Ligue 1 defeat against Strasbourg but
resumed training at the start of the week.
"He's been training with us for the last two
days," said Luis Enrique. "You saw him today, a normal training
session for him. He'll be available tomorrow."
The France international has been PSG's star performer this
season, scoring 33 goals in all competitions.
South Korean midfielder Lee Kang-in also took part in the
team training session following the knock he received in Strasbourg.
