Paris Saint-Germain continues to boost its summer mercato with several player movements. After initially considering a loan from Renato Sanches to Traşiktaşpor, the Portuguese club finally concluded an agreement with the Panathinaikos, including a purchase option. This signature is part of a general degreasing of the PSG, which also includes departures from Milan Škriniar and Nordi Mukiele. Other transfers are expected, notably for Randal Kolo Muani, Carlos Soler, Marco Asensio, Arnau Tenas and Gianluigi Donnarumma, the latter being particularly courted by the Premier League.

The PSG’s victory against Angers (1-0) was marked by a vibrant tribute to Gianluigi Donnarumma. Despite recent controversies, the goaltender received a memorable ovation from the supporters of Parc des Princes, who paid tribute to him for his past contributions to the club, particularly in the conquest of the Champions League. This event symbolized the deep link between the player and the Parisian fanbase, and could potentially influence his decision to join the Premier League.

The victory against Angers, albeit unspoilt, reflects the progress of the PSG in preparation. The team was able to manage its advantage and show that it is able to win even while still in the running phase. Coach Luis Enrique continues to give the entire staff play time to balance physical loads. This victory is seen as a positive sign, suggesting a sharper and more spectacular potential when the team is fully operational. The players’ notes show a collective effort, with Fabian Ruiz being particularly distinguished.
