The 2018 world champion spoke about his form, his status, PSG's historic 2024/2025 season and also his partners. The French defender also revealed the name of the name that had impressed him the most since his arrival in the French capital.

Gifted soon back on the pitch

Injured since September 5 and the match against Ukraine during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Désiré Doué should soon make his return to the field. The red and blue attacking midfielder should, unless the situation changes, be part of Luis Enrique's group for the match against RC Strasbourg on October 17 as part of the 8th day of Ligue 1.
