Saka under the elbow, Lee returns to prepare the Arsenal-PSG shock
Nine days before the long-awaited Champions League match between Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, a new event for the Gunners: wingman Bukayo Saka finished his last game with an ice pocket on his ankle. The worry is palpable in London, where his coach tempered the worry saying that “Saka suffers a little but fortunately, it doesn’t seem too serious. He’s fine, everything seems to be fine.” The future remains uncertain until we know the impact of this cold application on the player’s ankle.
At the same time, the situation is improving for Paris Saint-Germain. After several weeks of absence due to a sprain on the left ankle, Kang-in Lee finally found the ground this Saturday during the PSG victory over Le Havre (2-1). The offensive South Korean milieu, well noted (7/10), expressed its joy of return: “I am very happy to be able to return with the team, to play with them again. I’ll be back gradually. I feel that it still costs me a lot, but I will continue to work hard to get back in the best form possible.”
This progressive return for Kang-in Lee is good news for coach Luis Enrique, who relies on the return of his key men to the final sprint of the season. Attention is now drawn to the evolution of the physical state of Saka, just as it is to Kang-in Lee, who will continue his rehabilitation sessions to regain his optimal level.
