A brief scare at the Parc des Princes. After Ousmane Dembélé picked up a calf issue, PSG saw Désiré Doué leave the pitch at halftime against Metz (3-0). Enough to worry the fans? Yes. Time to sound the alarm? Not really.
On the scoresheet as early as the 3rd minute, the young French international felt discomfort in his adductors. As a precaution, the coaching staff chose not to take any risks.
Doué reassures fans after precautionary substitution
Speaking to Ligue 1+, Doué quickly eased concerns: “It was just preventive, everything is fine.” So no serious injury—simply smart management ahead of upcoming fixtures.
Even better, the Parisian enjoyed reclaiming top spot after Lens’ defeat. “It was very important to win. We’re back in first place, now we have to stay there.” Paris may have trembled… but Paris can breathe easy.
