The match against Bayern turned out to be disastrous for the Parisians—not just in terms of the result.
Details: According to the reputable outlet L’Équipe, 28-year-old PSG forward Ousmane Dembélé suffered a calf muscle injury in yesterday’s Champions League group stage matchday 4 clash against Bayern and could be sidelined for up to a month.

PSG head coach Luis Enrique commented after the match:
“We need to wait for tomorrow, when medical checks will clarify the situation with the players’ injuries. In Ousmane’s case, this issue isn’t related to his previous injury. But he played as much as you saw,” Enrique said.
The match ended in a 1-2 defeat for PSG—their first loss in this Champions League campaign—with Dembélé forced to leave the pitch early in the 25th minute.
Paris defender Achraf Hakimi also suffered a serious injury. The timeframe for his recovery will be revealed later.
