PSG star Ousmane Dembele's return timeline from injury revealed ahead of Club World Cup knockouts

The Frenchman is yet to take part in the Club World Cup 2025.

Paris Saint-Germain will play Inter Miami in the Round of 16 of the 2025 Club World Cup this Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. The 28-year-old striker Ousmane Dembélé is expected to be able to return, according to a story published by Le Parisien this Wednesday.

This is great news because PSG will undoubtedly benefit from the return. It’s a big plus even if they have a good team and can defeat Inter Miami (and many other clubs) without Dembélé. Not to mention that, in any event, it’s a further choice when relating to handling the team to avoid overburdening any one player.

The precise amount of playing time Dembélé will receive following recovery from a muscular ailment is still unknown. While a start isn’t out of the question, it’s by no means certain.

Due to his injury, the French star missed three games during this season’s Club World Cup group stage. Journalist Adrian Shantegrele claims that Dembele is prepared to play in Sunday’s Round of 16 matchup against Inter Miami.

The 28-year-old athlete is nearly back to his peak physical state. With six points, the team, coached by Luis Enrique, defeated the Botafogo and Atlético Madrid teams to win the group. This season, Ousmane Dembele has participated in 49 games, with 15 assists and 33 goals.

This indicates that he is contributing significantly to his team. Dembele’s return is anticipated to considerably bolster Paris Saint-Germain’s offensive line.

Fans and analysts are evaluating Ousmane Dembele’s recuperation and return to the field favourably, despite the fact that injuries and fitness can inevitably impact a player’s form and team performance. Together with the team, the club’s coaches and management have great expectations for their success.
