Kaïs Anelka, the son of former striker Nicolas Anelka, shone this weekend with the PSG U17s.

Like father, like son. A striker like his father Nicolas, Kaïs Anelka also wears the colours of Paris Saint-Germain, as was the case with his illustrious father (1995-1997 then 2000-2002). He joined the training centre of the capital club last season and is already starting to make a name for himself.

Aged just 16, Kaïs Anelka was a starter this Sunday afternoon for the match between the PSG U17s and their counterparts from Caen. And the young striker was the main architect of the Parisians’ victory.

A goal and an assist for young Anelka

The son of the former French international with 69 caps (14 goals) first opened the scoring, before delivering an assist, greatly contributing to his team’s victory (3-1). All under the eyes of his dad, who came to watch his offspring’s fine performance in the stands.

Kaïs Anelka came into play with the PSG U17s last weekend, during the first match of the season against Orléans.
