According to a report by GOAL on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has voiced his frustration after Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Marquinhos sustained injuries during their Champions League encounter against Barcelona.

Although PSG claimed an impressive 4-2 victory over the Spanish giants, the result was overshadowed by concerns about the fitness of three important members of the squad. Their injuries have raised questions about the team's strength ahead of its upcoming domestic and European fixtures.

Dembele was the first player to leave the field after seemingly picking up a left-thigh injury in the 19th minute. The French forward was subsequently replaced by Ferran Torres, while Kvaratskhelia and PSG captain Marquinhos also required medical attention during a challenging period for the visitors.

Kvaratskhelia's situation appeared particularly worrying after the Georgian winger landed awkwardly following an aerial challenge. He required assistance from medical personnel to leave the pitch, although the severity of the injury remains unknown. Reports suggesting that he may have suffered a serious knee injury have yet to be confirmed, pending further medical examinations.

Reacting after the match, Enrique admitted that the injuries had significantly dampened his satisfaction with PSG's victory. The Spanish tactician made it clear that losing three players to potential injuries was the most disappointing aspect of the encounter.

“I am not the doctor. I am the coach,” Enrique said, before describing the three injuries as “the worst part of the game today”.

He added that further medical assessments would be necessary to establish the extent of the injuries and determine how long the affected players might be unavailable.

PSG will be hoping the injuries are not serious as they prepare to face Lyon in Ligue 1 on October 25. Extended absences for Dembele, Kvaratskhelia or Marquinhos would be a major blow to Enrique's plans, especially as the French champions seek to sustain their momentum in both domestic and European competitions.
