PSG angry with coach Deschamps

Paris Saint-Germain's board are furious after Ousmane Dembele suffered a hamstring injury in the 2-0 win over Ukraine in a 2026 World Cup qualifier.

Ousmane Dembele's serious hamstring injury has left PSG angry with coach Didier Deschamps.

Coach Didier Deschamps' decision to let Dembele play caused a lot of controversy, because before that, the French striker was not feeling well. According to ESPN , PSG was upset with Deschamps' risky decision, which directly affected the French capital club.

Some PSG board members even harshly criticized the French national team coach, considering Deschamps' decision unreasonable and potentially ruining the Ligue 1 team's season. Dembele was injured in the 2026 World Cup qualifying match between France and Ukraine on September 6.

PSG's official website later announced that Dembele would be out for six weeks due to a calf injury. PSG's management had warned the French team that Dembele had suffered problems in the Ligue 1 match against Toulouse, but coach Deschamps still let the star play.

Coach Deschamps later had to defend his decision. “I was sure that Dembele was capable of playing at first, otherwise I would not have used him. This time, Dembele has a different injury (compared to the match against Toulouse). Before the match, he was completely healthy."

"It's a pity for Dembele, but this could happen to any other player. I decided to let him play because medically there was no problem," added coach Deschamps.
