What if Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 became a problem at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG)? Recently, the striker’s season has been riddled with complications following a long ischio injury, which was further exacerbated by an illness that forced him to miss a crucial match against Metz. Although he eventually played in the final of the Intercontinental Cup, where PSG emerged victorious against Flamengo, the circumstances surrounding his return have raised concerns. Reports from Canal+<\/strong> indicate that his limited playing time is becoming a source of frustration for the talented forward.<\/p>\n Demb\u00e9l\u00e9’s low playing time has affected his confidence and readiness on the field. The Ballon d’Or winner feels he needs consistent minutes to regain his form. PSG’s coaching staff is understandably cautious, considering his health track record this season, which includes only 14 appearances and a modest tally of 4 goals and 4 assists. However, he did manage to impress during a recent match against Vend\u00e9e Fontenay Foot in the Coupe de France, scoring a goal and providing an assist in a 4-0 win.<\/p>\n Demb\u00e9l\u00e9’s contract with PSG runs until 2028, and the club is keen to extend contracts for several players. While negotiations have begun, PSG aims to implement a performance-based system. Since the club initiated this approach with Marco Verratti in December 2022, they’ve sought to reward players based on their contributions and minutes on the pitch. This fixed-salary model ensures that while base salaries are not exorbitantly high, they incentivize players to contribute actively.<\/p>\n One major factor complicating Demb\u00e9l\u00e9’s contract extension is his injury history. While he has significant potential, his frequent absences make it risky for PSG to offer a more lucrative deal without safeguards. The situation mirrors earlier contract negotiations with Gigio Donnarumma, where injury concerns led to complications, ultimately resulting in the Italian goalkeeper’s departure from the club.<\/p>\n The upcoming weeks will be critical for Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 as he navigates through his playing time and contract intricacies at PSG. His return to form is essential not just for the team’s success but also for his future at the club. With the right opportunities, Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 can solidify his position and potentially secure an extension. However, the challenges posed by his injury record present a formidable obstacle that both he and PSG will need to navigate carefully. As his career unfolds, fans and management alike will be watching closely.<\/p>\nFrustration Due to Limited Playing Time<\/h3>\n
