Ousmane Dembele has been dropped by Paris Saint-Germain for their Champions League trip to Arsenal following a bust-up with manager Luis Enrique.

The World Cup winner has been a talismanic presence for the Ligue 1 title holders this season.

However, he has figured in all six of their domestic fixtures at the start of the 2024-25 campaign, registering four goals and the same number of assists.

Dembele has helped PSG back to first place in the French top flight, with the former Barcelona star seemingly rediscovering a spark in his homeland.

He was handed a starting berth, and registered one of his assists for the season, in a 3-1 victory over Rennes on Friday.

However, according to L’Equipe, the 27-year-old forward was involved in a heated argument with his manager after that contest.

Spanish tactician Luis Enrique has never been one to bow to player power, and he has taken the decision to remove Dembele from his immediate plans.

Also, it remains to be seen how long he will be excluded for, with Luis Enrique in a position to dictate how severe the disciplinary sanctions are.
