Paris Saint-Germain prepares at the end of the adventure of Milan Skriniar, a Slovak central defender who arrived from Inter Milan in the summer of 2023. The player did not manage to impose himself permanently within the Parisian club and his departure seems imminent. According to information from Turkish media Ajansspor, an agreement was reached between the PSG and the Fenerbahçe for a definitive transfer estimated at EUR 12 million, with a bonus of EUR 3 million. This operation would allow the PSG to free up a spot in central defence and separate from a player judged too slow and unperforming in Luis Enrique’s game system. Skriniar would have already agreed to join the Turkish club, and his departure could be formalized soon.

A leading referee was appointed by FIFA to oversee the semifinal game of the World Cup Clubs between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid. Szymon Marciniak, an experienced and renowned referee for managing major events, will lead this crucial meeting scheduled this Wednesday at 9 p.m. (French time) in New York. Marciniak is no stranger to both teams, having already played in the PSG-Manchester match. This choice reflects the expected importance and intensity of this confrontation.

The appointment of Szymon Marciniak as the referee for the semifinal PSG-Real Madrid underlines the need for Paris Saint-Germain to maintain a maximum concentration on all aspects of the game. The club will have to show rigour and attention to details to hope to win a place in the final of this prestigious competition. The outcome of this meeting will be determined in part by the ability of Parisian players to adapt to arbitral decisions and maintain a high level of performance throughout the game.
