Captain since the departure of Thiago Silva, Marquinhos should extend his mandate despite competition from Ilia Zabarnyi, a new recruit to the profile capable of evolving in a three or four defense. The departure of Gianluigi Donnarumma, a former vice-captain, much appreciated in the locker room, rebutting the cards of the Parisian leadership, Luis Enrique will organize in the coming weeks a vote to designate his captain, faithful to his method of leaving this choice to his players.
If Marquinhos remains the big favorite, other candidates are emerging: Achraf Hakimi, already vice-captain, wishes to take on more responsibilities, just like Ousmane Dembélé, influencing by his state of mind and his generosity, like his match against the Spurs where he was exemplary. Players like Warren Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha or Fabian Ruiz have already worn the armband punctually, proof that PSG has a breeding ground for potential leaders to supervise its workforce. Response in the coming weeks.
