PSG player excluded from Arsenal game following argument with coach.

Luis Enrique has made the decision to leave Ousmane Dembele out of the Paris Saint-Germain squad for their upcoming Champions League match against Arsenal. This comes after a heated argument between the player and head coach following their victory over Rennes on Friday.

Dembele, who has been a standout performer for PSG this season, will not be traveling with the team to London on Monday. According to reports, this decision has nothing to do with an injury and is solely based on the disagreement with Enrique.

With Dembele being a key player for PSG, his absence will force Enrique to make some big changes for the match against Arsenal. The 24-year-old has been in top form this season, scoring four goals and providing four assists in just six Ligue 1 appearances.

His most recent contribution was an assist for Bradley Barcola's goal in their win over Rennes, but he was later substituted in the 82nd minute. It was after this game that the argument with Enrique took place.

When asked about Dembele's absence in a press conference on Monday, Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta said they had just received the news and were unsure if it was true. However, they will continue to prepare for the match as they always do, despite the French champions having many other options.

In their first Champions League match, PSG secured a 1-0 win against Girona, while Arsenal were held to a goalless draw against Atalanta. The Gunners did manage to bounce back with a 4-2 victory over Leicester City on Saturday, with goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, and Kai Havertz.

However, they will still be without their captain Martin Odegaard and midfielder Mikel Merino, but are hopeful that Ben White and Riccardo Calafiori will be available for the match on Tuesday.
