Didier Deschamps spoke about PSG’s chances of winning the Champions League this season.
After changing era at the start of the summer, with major upheavals within the team and the arrival of a new coach, Paris Saint-Germain is not yet ready. And this is particularly seen on the European scene, where the capital club has not yet validated its ticket for the round of 16 of the Champions League one day before the end of the group stage. Worse, the reigning French champions are not safe from elimination.
However, Didier Deschamps considers PSG as a serious candidate for final victory in the Champions League. “There are 6 or 7 clubs which have the legitimate ambition to win the Champions League. If PSG can win it? The season is still long. There is obviously the championship which is the common thread, even if the start in terms of points was less good compared to what was done in previous years. indicated the French coach.
“Paris remains armed and remains a candidate for this title”
And to continue: “ In the Champions League, there is this first phase which requires you to be in peak form again until March. The schedule is busy, you have to perform well in the groups, then the draw can also be important. But Paris remains armed and remains a candidate for this title. » Before thinking about the title, PSG will absolutely have to win in Dortmund in two weeks to ensure their place in the round of 16.
