PSG has set sail for Washington to play its last group match of the World Cup in the Seattle Sounders. In this decisive meeting, Parisians must impose themselves to win their ticket for the knockout stages. At a press conference on Monday, Luis Enrique remained vague on his intentions concerning a possible rotation. One thing is certain: behind the scenes, the Spanish coach is already preparing next season with a tight workforce and two to three targeted recruits.

And who says new arrivals, says he necessarily departures. Three players would be in the viewfinder of the Parisian coach and the sports advisor Luis Campos: Lucas Beraldo, Lucas Hernandez and Gonçalo Ramos. According to the information of the Parisian, these three elements do not seem to offer enough guarantees to the technical staff to assume a reliable lining role without lowering the overall level of the team.

However, concerned do not wish to leave Paris. Despite their status as a replacement, Beraldo, Hernandez and Ramos remain attached to the Parisian project. But this club world could well be a turning point in their future. Indeed, before departure for the United States, Campos and Enrique would have gathered the group of replacements to pass them a clear message.

PSG leaders closely monitor their investment during this tournament. “Luis Enrique and Luis Campos asked for a total investment of their troops, paying particular attention to the yield of the usual replacements, likely to be placed on the list of transfers in the event of a little less successful competition”can we read in everyday life.

It remains to pass the Seattle obstacle. Winner of the Champions League, PSG aims for a performance that lives up to its status in this club World Cup. But after a defeat against Botafogo (1-0), the pressure is maximum. A misstep against the Americans would sign a premature road trip and could well precipitate certain decisions internally.
