Paris Saint-Germain posted a relatively quiet activity in the transfer market, limiting itself to the arrival of two new players: Illya Zabarnyi and Lucas Chevalier. Despite Luis Campos’ efforts to strengthen the attack with a new striker, coach Luis Enrique finally refused these reinforcements, expressing his satisfaction with the current strength. This decision is part of a new sports philosophy, focused on the development and valorisation of young talents from the training centre, a will also expressed by the management of the club.
The group of players ready to face the Toulouse FC for the third day of Ligue 1 includes twenty names, with the return of Khvicha Kvartsakhelia after an absence. However, PreSnel Kimpembe and Senny Mayulu are still absent due to injury or lack of collective time. Coach Luis Enrique highlighted the importance of continuity in the team building, focusing on the development of young players rather than massive recruitment. This strategy aims to build a coherent workforce, combining experience and potential.
Luis Enrique’s new approach marks a change of course from previous PSG strategies, often criticized for their dependence on big names and costly transfers. The goal is now to value players trained in the club and build a long-term team capable of continuously improving. This desire to favour young talent is seen as a source of hope by fans, attached to the players trained at home. Moreover, the commitment of French striker Christopher Nkunku with AC Milan highlights the tendency of young talent to seek new opportunities outside the PSG.
