News

The Paris Saint-Germain coach held a press conference at the Ooredoo Centre in order to answer questions from the media, on the eve of hosting Strasbourg at the Parc des Princes.

BACK AT THE PARC

"It's a dream come true. I have wanted this since I arrived here, to play in front of a full Parc. The fans were great during the season opening match at Troyes, and it's a source of real happiness to be with them in Paris tomorrow for the Strasbourg game."

THE SQUAD

"When several players join, it's not necessarily easy for the coaching staff, the new players and the club. But that's our job, we need to stay competitive and our priority is to take the three points tomorrow, and we're focused on the match."

STRASBOURG

"This match is very important to us, we won the first match at Troyes and we need to show the same energy and motivation tomorrow in order to score a second win. We're going to respect our opponents, and be at our best, because we want to keep our run going. We want to play the best match possible." 

LEO MESSI

"We are happy, just like the supporters and all the players, to have Leo Messi with us. It's great to be able to welcome him here, and he has real positive energy. We have a marvellous team in order to be competitive, and we hope to do our best in order to achieve the club's objectives."

THE SQUAD FOR STRASBOURG

"Not everything has been decided for tomorrows's squad. The last of the internationals to come back have trained well in recent days and we will decide tomorrow which players are best able to be part of the squad."
