You have to believe that a European title won on the ground commands respect behind the scenes. THE Paris Saint-Germain could attest to this. Since May 31 and that magical night in the Champions League final against Inter Milan (5-0), the capital club has been showered with praise by its opponents, including FC Barcelona, ​​which it recently tamed (2-1).
Long perceived as a nouveau riche against the old dinosaurs of European football, PSG saw the Catalan club move closer afterwards, as Joan Laporta indicated during the assembly of European clubs this week.
Nasser Al-KhelaĂŻfi, president of PSG.
“ The president of the EFC invited us. We quietly accepted the invitation“, launched the Barça boss, before specifying on the set of the show El Chiringuito that he had “a very good relationship with Al Khelaïfi”.
Real Madrid more isolated than ever
“We are for the peace of European football. We want to find an agreement and return to UEFA. This is what all clubs want. Coming here allows you to generate good things”continued Joan Laporta.
A fairly spectacular turnaround since FC Barcelona embodied (alongside Real Madrid and Juventus) the small group of clubs instigators of the Super League project, which opposed UEFA a few years ago. This rapprochement with PSG is seen as a betrayal by the Spanish rival. Florentino Perez seems more isolated than ever.
