Qualified for the finals of Coupe de France and Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain, already champion of France, between more than ever in a playing phase of playing times for the two Ligue 1 matches that remains to be played (against Montpellier and Auxerre). The opportunity for Parisian titis to appear? Present at a press conference, this Friday, Luis Enrique began by recalling his positioning vis-à-vis the biggest talents of the capital's club. “Our workforce demonstrates the idea of ​​the staff, we want to give chances to the Titis, but that does not mean offering playing time to PSG, one of the best world teams. You have to have the level. They have the advantage of knowing the club, culture. There is a preference for titis compared to a young foreigner. There is a good balance, but the titis must have a level that corresponds to what the club is waiting for. It will be difficult for everyone to make a career at PSG, but they will have opportunities, our mentality is to open the team to home players ”. A strong and encouraging message that could quickly materialize by facts.

Ibrahim Mbaye and Noham Kamara impress

Called by Luis Enrique for the trip to Montpellier during the 33rd day of Ligue 1, Noham Kamara, Axel Tape, Ibrahim Mbaye, Quentin Ndjantou, Wassim Slama or even Martin James could thus have a great opportunity to illustrate, for some, or even confirm the beautiful previews, for others. From then on, if Roméo Garnier, 16 -year -old scorer, signed his first professional contract with Ajax Amsterdam and Mahamadou Sangaré, 18 -year -old, is on the way to spinning English on the side of Manchester City, the other Ile -de -France nuggets intend to take advantage of this special season to show up, starting with Ibrahim Mbaye. Already accustomed to the Parisian professional group with 8 appearances in Ligue 1, the young 17 -year -old right winger continues his learning of the very high level. Considered one of the greatest hopes of PSG formation, the native of Trappes – embarrassed by injuries this season and went down to U19 last spring – is today determined to make a place in the big leagues. A legitimate ambition with regard to the intrinsic qualities of Franco-Senegalese.

In his wake, Noham Kamara continues her incredible ascent. Spotted by the staff of Luis Enrique during a U19 match against Lens, the 18 -year -old defender, who has passed through Torcy, has since signed a trainee contract with the capital's club. Integrated into the pro group last month, Meaux's kid even had the right to his first minutes under the Ile-de-France tunic, last weekend against Strasbourg. Coming into play in place of Lucas Hernandez, Kamara finally delivered a second period more than encouraging in an unprecedented role of left lateral. Capable of evolving in a position of 6 or 8, the right -hander of 1m83 is today promised to a very good future. An observation also applicable to a certain Axel Tape. Belonging to the 2007 generation, the native of Bondy is also approaching the Great Court. Called in the professional group at the end of 2024, the 17 -year -old midfielder – who started on the side of Bobigny – had played 72 minutes of play, in the role of central defender, during the 6th round of the Coupe de France against Espaly (4-2) on January 15.

Axel Tape on departure, Quentin Ndjantou coveted …

Back in the eleven Parisian last week, the Parisian crack had confirmed the extent of its potential by delivering 90 minutes of good quality despite the defeat (1-2) of the Red and Blue. Aligned alongside Lucas Berado, Tape had generally shown himself up to the appointment. If a new opportunity arises for him, this Saturday, against Montpellier, his future remains very uncertain, however. According to the latest information from Sky Sports GermanyTape would, in fact, today packed by the idea of ​​joining Bayer Leverkusen. Unlike the case Jeanuël Belocian, recruited from Rennes against 15 million euros last summer, the defending German champion could this time recover the free Parisian from any contract. Aware of the big potential of the French international U18, German leaders have also chained video interviews with those around him in recent weeks. Tape would then have expressed his enthusiasm on the club's project, even if English training (Tottenham) are also on the file, but would not have the preference of the Parisian at present.

Finally, other new faces could take advantage of the trip to the Hérault to illustrate. This is particularly the case with Martin James. 17 -year -old guardian, the native of Versailles, who passed through Meudon, was very present the collective training of Luis Enrique this Friday. If a tenure against the Montpellier seems unlikely despite the absence of Gianluigi Donnarumma (Matvey Safonov and Arnau Tenas appear in the group), this first summons leaves pretty hopes to the principal concerned. The same goes for Wassim Slama. Coming from the pre -training of PSG, this young versatile attacker of 16 years, usually with the U17 (four matches with the U19 this season), was also summoned by the Parisian technician. Like Quentin Ndjantou Mbitcha. Creator's attacking midfielder, capable of evolving in more advanced positions, the 17 -year -old Titi, passed by Paris FC and Villejuif, is also one of the great talents of PSG formation. A time delayed by injuries, the kid of Arpajon has also been offered a first professional contract by the capital's club, which will however have to be wary of the interest expressed by Hoffenheim, current 14th in Bundesliga.
