Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and PSG’s Champions League momentum, Digi Mart USA News: French sports press on Friday, November 6, examined the mood at Paris Saint-Germain, focusing on president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and the concern his club’s Champions League success is creating among opponents.
Paris Saint-Germain won 6-1 against Slovan Bratislava and 6-0 against Villarreal, showing that the squad remains focused in every match despite the trophies it has already won. Victories by 2-4 at Manchester City and 4-2 against FC Barcelona underlined that the squad still has resources to find solutions against the strongest opponents.
According to the reports, this form is likely to worry future opponents. However, as the Parisians keep repeating, the club has not won anything this season and the road ahead remains long.
The article suggests Al-Khelaïfi is believed to share the same message internally, where he visibly continues to show great respect. The report notes that it is welcome to see more of this side of the club president, who is generally discreet, and that it will be paired with comments from Javier Pastore.
Attention then turns to the French national team. Zinédine Zidane faces difficult choices with an impressive pool of players for his squad list, which the report calls a difficult luxury.
The squad list is due to be announced at 6 p.m. on Friday ahead of the November break, which begins Monday, and the article suggests there could be surprises.
