Having gone off with a hamstring problem after scoring against Arsenal last week, he appeared to be moving well in the session on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"He's been training with us for the last two days. You saw him on Tuesday - a normal training session for him. He'll be available on Wednesday,\" said Enrique in the pre-game conference. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>PSG\u2019s attacking wingback Achraf Hakimi called Dembele a genius on the ball and was delighted on his return. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"He is the type of player who makes you want to go to the stadium to watch because he is a genius on the ball, even if he doesn't have many chances. He can change the course of the game so we are delighted to have him back in the team,\u201d said Hakimi. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Arsenal and PSG are equally finely poised, with the French side holding a slender advantage. Dembele\u2019s early strike in London has put Paris within touching distance of only their second-ever final. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Despite the lead, the French champions cannot afford to be complacent. Arsenal, known for their unpredictability and history of pulling off upsets in big games, could level the tie early and shift momentum.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Enrique further elaborated on what could prove to be key for his side in the clash. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Despite the lead, the French champions cannot afford to be complacent.
