Ousmane Dembele will miss Arsenal's upcoming clash with Barcelona, manager Luis Enrique has confirmed. The French winger picked up a knock in training and will be unavailable for the crucial game. This news is sure to be a blow for Barça fans, as Dembele has been in exceptional form recently.
Enrique, however, remains optimistic about his side's chances despite the loss of the winger. He highlighted the depth of his squad and emphasized that other players are ready to step up.
"Dembele is a key player for us," Enrique said in a press conference. "We're disappointed he won't be available, but we have confidence in the rest of the squad. We'll adapt and find a way to win."
It's still unclear how long Dembele will be sidelined. Enrique didn't give a definitive timeline, but he did say that the injury is not as serious as initially feared.
This news adds another layer of intrigue to the already highly anticipated match. Barcelona will be looking to bounce back from their recent loss to Real Madrid and continue their push for the La Liga title. Arsenal, on the other hand, will be eager to prove their mettle against one of Europe's giants.
