Desire Doue set to boost PSG ahead of Barcelona clash

Desire Doue is close to making his return for Paris Saint-Germain at a moment that could prove vital for the team.

According to Le Parisien, the 20-year-old winger is expected back before PSG’s Champions League meeting with Barcelona.

Doue is on track to feature in the Ligue 1 game against Auxerre on September 27, giving him precious minutes ahead of the European test four days later. His comeback offers coach Luis Enrique a timely lift as the Spanish manager looks to rotate his squad and keep energy levels high.

PSG will welcome Barcelona on October 1 in a group stage match that already carries weight. Doue’s dynamism and creativity in midfield have quickly made him a reliable option, and his presence could help PSG keep their balance against a tough opponent.

While Doue’s return is encouraging, PSG will still miss Ousmane Dembele, who is ruled out of the clash with his former club. Even so, the spotlight remains on Doue, whose availability could shape PSG’s performance in this decisive encounter.
