Injury Update: PSG Face Potential Blow as Four Players Could Miss Key Clash Against Arsenal | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain will likely be without three players for Matchday 2 of the UEFA Champions League’s league phase against Arsenal. Nonetheless, the Gunners will also be without a key player for this matchup.

Norway’s team doctor initially predicted Ødegaard would need at least three weeks to recover from an ankle injury, putting his availability for that match in doubt. Moreover, this week, manager Mikel Arteta noted that they couldn’t count on the Norwegian player.

“Ødegaard back? It will be a matter of weeks,” manager Mikel Arteta said. “But I still can’t guarantee when; I can’t tell you more than this: Before October’s international break is unlikely.”

PSG will also have players not fit for this match as L’Equipe reports that Gianluigi Donnarumma, Marco Asensio, and Désiré Doué are uncertain about the upcoming game against Arsenal, raising some concerns for the team.

Meanwhile, Vitinha has been engaged in individual training. While his condition is not a major concern, the player’s fitness remains questionable as the Champions League approaches.

Due to a critical absence from their squad, the Premier League team will face a big challenge as they try to progress in the league phase of the competition. It’ll be intriguing to see if PSG can manage without major setbacks when meeting at the Emirates Stadium.
