Kimpembe Returns to PSG Squad but Remains Unfit to Play, Confirms Luis Enrique
Kimpembe’s Return to PSG: A Cautious Comeback Amid Champions League Clash
Paris, November 2024 – Presnel Kimpembe, the central defender for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), has rejoined the squad for the first time since his Achilles tendon rupture in February 2023. The French international travels with the team to the Allianz Arena for their Champions League face-off against Bayern Munich.
Kimpembe’s status remains uncertain
Despite his return, Kimpembe is unlikely to be listed for the match. During a press briefing on Monday, PSG’s head coach, Luis Enrique, discussed the player’s fitness, subtly affirming this expectation.
“I want all my players ready”
Luis Enrique shared insights into Kimpembe’s progress: “Things are going much better for him, but he is still in the recovery phase.” He emphasized the importance of Kimpembe’s return to training, noting that the player is still undergoing a different stage of recovery. “I want all my players ready, no matter their name.”
Additional Squad Updates
Alongside Kimpembe, Luis Enrique has also called upon Gonçalo Ramos. The Portuguese forward has been sidelined since August due to a left ankle sprain sustained during a match against Le Havre in Ligue 1.
This cautious approach by PSG reflects their strategic planning as they prepare for a crucial Champions League encounter, ensuring all players are at their optimal fitness levels before stepping onto the pitch.
