What if it was Michael Olise's great day? The French international, which has been installed in the offensive sector of the Blues by Didier Deschamps since last September, is widely awaited during the poster for the quarterfinals of the World Cup of clubs between Bayern and PSG, this Saturday in Atlanta (12 noon in Georgia, 6 p.m. in France, live on Dazn).
The 23-year-old left-handed started with club World Cup with a double of goals and assists in the 10-0 inflicted on Auckland City three weeks ago. Ollise then scored against Boca Juniors (2-1) but precisely disappointed during the following two games, against Benfica for a 1-0 defeat and on the eighth finals against Flamengo despite the most goals (4-2).
The Franco-English (native of London, he went through the training centers of Arsenal and Chelsea) accompanies Harry Kane, Jamal Musiala and Kingsley Coman in the offensive sector composed by Vincent Kompany. Coman was released on injury last Sunday but resumed in time to challenge his training club, against whom he obviously scored the goal of the coronation in the Champions League in 2020.
MICHAEL OLISE Holder, not Dembélé
Dayot UpameCano also holds alongside Jonathan Tah in a central hinge to challenge the offensive sector of Luis Enrique PSG composed of Désiré Doué, Bradley Barcola and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (Ousmane Dembélé still begins on the bench of red and blue).
The PSG composition: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes – Neves, Vitinha, Ruiz – Barcola, Doué, Kvaratskhelia.
The Bayern composition: Neuer – Laimer, Upamecano, Tah, Stanisic – Kimmich, Pavlovic – Olise, Musiala, Coman – Kane.
