PSG boosted by Dembélé and Marquinhos returns ahead of Bayer clash
After a disappointing 3-3 draw with Strasbourg and the loss of top spot in Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain have received two major boosts ahead of their UEFA Champions League showdown with Bayer Leverkusen.
Ousmane Dembélé has been named in the squad for the first time in a month. The Ballon d’Or winner will travel with the team to Germany for Tuesday night’s match in Leverkusen, marking his long-awaited return from injury.
Marquinhos is also back in contention after missing the Strasbourg game, while João Neves — who sat out the weekend fixture as a precaution — has been declared fully fit and available for selection.
The news provides a timely lift for Luis Enrique’s side, who are looking to regain momentum in Europe after a turbulent domestic run.
