Injured since February of this year, Presnel Kimpembe is set to make his return to PSG, but it won’t be happening immediately.
During the summer transfer window of 2023, Paris Saint-Germain bolstered its defense with the acquisitions of Milan Skriniar and Lucas Hernandez. This means there will be stiff competition awaiting Presnel Kimpembe upon his return. This situation may prompt Enrique to rethink his defensive plans and adjust his tactical scheme accordingly.
Presnel Kimpembe, who suffered an Achilles tendon rupture on February 26, has recently resumed running. While he is on the path to recovery, he is expected to be match-fit « around mid-November to early December, » as reported by L’Équipe.
The prospect of Kimpembe’s return could alter the dynamics of PSG’s defense and provide Enrique with additional choices to consider. The competition for starting spots will undoubtedly be fierce and highly competitive.
