Paris Saint-Germain’s injury worries have cleared up ahead of the Champions League final against Arsenal on Saturday.
PSG forward Ousmane Dembele has been managing a calf issue in the final weeks of the season but the reigning Ballon d’Or winner said Friday he is “100% ready and raring to go.”
There was more concern about the health of defender Achraf Hakimi, who hasn’t played since sustaining a right thigh injury against Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals on April 28.
However, the attacking right back, who was selected by Morocco for the World Cup this week, was also spotted in training on Tuesday and has been given the all-clear by PSG coach Luis Enrique, who said Hakimi was “OK and able to play tomorrow.”
PSG will be looking to successfully defend the title the team won in record-breaking fashion last year with a 5-0 win over Inter Milan – the most lopsided final in the competition’s 70-year history.
