Paris Saint-Germain officially launches its 2024-2025 season. After the departure of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid, a short summer preparation and a summer marked by the interminable soap opera of TV rights, the capital club is back in business. This Friday evening, in Normandy, the Red and Blue will challenge the HAC with the firm intention of starting this new season ideally. For this first meeting, the Parisians will be able to count on their recent recruits, Matvey Safonov, Joao Neves and Willian Pacho, while Désiré Doué is also about to join the Parisian team.

Forced to deal with very disparate fitness levels given the late return of his internationals but also the absences of Presnel Kimpembe, Lucas Hernandez and Nuno Mendes, suspended against the Ciel et Marine, Luis Enrique should then opt for a 4-3-3. In goal and despite the recent arrival of the 25-year-old Russian goalkeeper, Gianluigi Donnarumma is expected to start this match. In front of the Italian, the Spanish coach could rely on a defensive quartet composed of Lucas Beraldo on the left, Willian Pacho, Milan Skriniar in the center, and Achraf Hakimi, bronze medalist with Morocco at the 2024 Olympics, on the right.

PSG without Neves but with Pacho, Ngoura at the forefront of the Le Havre attack?

In midfield, João Neves, who arrived this summer from Benfica, should start as a substitute, leaving the places to Vitinha, Warren Zaïre-Emery and Marco Asensio. Fabian Ruiz is being rested for this first day. Finally, on the offensive side, Bradley Barcola and Kang-In Lee could start and support Gonçalo Ramos. Ousmane Dembélé and Randal Kolo Muani would then start on the substitutes’ bench. For his part, Didier Digard, new coach of HAC after the departure of Luka Elsner to the Stade de Reims, is preparing to experience his big debut with the Hacmens.

For this first clash, the former OGC Nice technician should also bet on a 4-3-3. In goal, Arthur Desmas, an undisputed starter, is logically expected and should be protected by Loïc Nego, Etienne Youté Kinkoué, Gauthier Lloris and Christopher Opéri. In midfield, Abdoulaye Touré could start in a sentinel role, alongside Yassine Kechta and Daler Kuzyaev. Finally, to try to shake the Parisian nets, Josué Casimir and Antoine Joujou should accompany the young striker Steve Ngoura.
