If Arsenal are to overcome PSG in the Champions League final, then there’s a good chance they’re going to need Ousmane Dembele to be off his game.
The French side had an injury scare with the winger but Dembele himself has claimed his injury is now fine.
With Dembele a key part of the Paris side’s brilliant attack, Arsenal’s defenders are in for the toughest night all season and will need to bank on all their experience and solidity to keep PSG out.
Still, Arsenal are more than capable of winning the game. And according to Dembele, PSG are well aware of just how good Mikel Arteta’s side are.

Ousmane Dembele labels Arsenal a ‘serious team’ ahead of the Champions League final
Everyone who has watched Arsenal this season will say that they’re not the most attractive team on the eye but in the end, they get the job done.
In Europe, they have been outstanding and have conceded the least goals of anyone.
And for Dembele, it’s going to be an extremely difficult night at the office.
“It’s a difficult team. They finished first in the Champions League, they were Premier League champions, they’re a serious team that works very well defensively, and they’re good in attack too.
“So I think it’s going to be a great battle,” Dembele told Canal Sport+.
With Dembele just one of numerous attacking threats in this PSG side, Arsenal need to be at their best.
However, the Gunners can also be a threat the other way. Bukayo Saka remains one of the best wingers in Europe, while Viktor Gyokeres has more than proven himself on the continent as well.
Yes, Arsenal need these big players to fire but if there’s ever a night to do it, it’s Champions League final night.
