Triple Injury Boost for Arsenal Ahead of Champions League Decider Against PSG

Arsenal have been handed a timely injury boost as they prepare for their high-stakes Champions League semi-final second leg against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night.

The Gunners, trailing 1-0 from the first leg, head to the French capital with fresh hope after Martin Ødegaard, Jurrien Timber, and Riccardo Calafiori were all spotted in training on Tuesday morning at London Colney.

Club captain Ødegaard had limped off late during their 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth over the weekend, sparking fears over his availability. However, his presence in full training suggests he could be fit enough to feature in Paris. Timber, who picked up a knock during the first leg against PSG, also trained with the squad and could be in line for a surprise return.

Although Calafiori—who has been sidelined since March with a knee injury sustained on international duty with Italy—was back training, the clash against PSG might come too soon for the 21-year-old full-back.

🔎 Opinion: The Stage Is Set for a Classic Arsenal Fightback

Arsenal fans have grown accustomed to high drama and late heroics under Mikel Arteta, and this tie has all the ingredients for another unforgettable night. While the Gunners were outclassed in parts of the first leg, this boost could tilt the balance.

Having Ødegaard’s creativity and leadership on the pitch could be pivotal. Timber’s potential return also adds depth to Arsenal’s defensive options. Even without Calafiori, Arteta now has more tools to play with in a must-win game.

If there’s ever a time to show resilience and ambition, it’s now. Paris is calling, and Munich awaits.
