Positive Updates on PSG’s Defensive Line: Injury Recoveries in Sight
Kimpembe’s Comeback Sparks Hope
Exciting news emerged this week as Presnel Kimpembe (29) returned to training after being sidelined due to an Achilles tendon injury sustained in February 2023. His return is anticipated to bolster the squad dynamics for Paris Saint-Germain, refreshing their defensive capabilities.
Lucas Hernandez Approaches Recovery Milestone
In addition to Kimpembe’s revival, PSG is reportedly optimistic about another defensive asset, Lucas Hernandez (28), returning to the field soon. According to a recent report from Le Parisien, Hernandez is progressing well in his recovery from a cruciate ligament tear that occurred during PSG’s Champions League semi-final against Borussia Dortmund last season.
Timeline for Training Resumption
The club believes that Hernandez has made significant strides ahead of schedule in his rehabilitation process. There are indications that he could rejoin full training sessions within a few weeks. Management appears hopeful that he might even make an appearance before the year concludes.
Heightened Competition at Left-Back
Hernandez’s potential return would introduce increased competition for Nuno Mendes (22), who currently occupies the left-back position. The young defender has been performing admirably; however, there are lingering doubts regarding Lucas Beraldo’s (20) impact since his transfer last January. Currently, Beraldo has not fully showcased he possesses the level required by such a prestigious club.
with both Kimpembe and Hernandez working towards their comebacks, PSG fans can look forward to reinforced defensive options in their upcoming matches as they aim for continued success this season.
