46 days out due to injury! L’Equipe: Dembélé is expected to return in the Champions League against Leverkusen

October 21st According to "Team" report, new Golden Globe winner Dembele has officially returned to the Paris Saint-Germain roster after 46 days of absence due to injury, and is expected to return in the Champions League away game against Leverkusen.

Reports revealed Dembele’s busy schedule after winning the Ballon d’Or. During his recovery, he not only had to deal with "a large number of media invitations", but also returned to his hometown of Evreux to be celebrated, and then flew to Qatar's Aspetar Center to continue treatment and present the trophy to the Emir.

However, unlike the team immersed in joy, Dembele himself has "been the first to feel the need to refocus on competition." The article specifically pointed out that unlike Mbappe, the Golden Globe Award "has never become his obsession" and his 28-year-old maturity and stability will prevent him from being "lax or arrogant".

Dembele's return is accompanied by new questions, especially the fact that negotiations on salary increases have begun. But within Paris, efforts are being made to "lower expectations" for him. An insider said: "He won the Ballon d'Or, but his return is just an added value, and the team also showed strength in his absence. We don't expect him to destroy everything tonight."

Head coach Luis Enrique also made it clear to the media at the press conference: "You are too obsessed with the Ballon d'Or. He is Osman, not Mr. Ballon d'Or. He is the same player. (The Ballon d'Or) has changed nothing, we have to see how he feels."
