Paris Saint-Germain have received a significant fitness uplift ahead of their upcoming Champions League final against Arsenal later this month.

The French Ligue 1 giants secured their spot in the final after eliminating Bayern Munich in the semi-final stage, and will now face Arsenal on May 30 in Budapest.

In a boost to their preparations, PSG announced on Tuesday that right-back Achraf Hakimi has returned to training.

The Moroccan international had been kept out of action due to a thigh injury picked up during the first leg of the semi-final clash against Bayern Munich.

Alongside Hakimi, the club also confirmed that goalkeepter Lucas Chevalier and Quentin Ndjantou have resumed outdoor individual training sessions, giving manager Luis Enrique renewed optimism as the final approaches.
