Present at the Parc des Princes this Tuesday evening for the clash between PSG and Bayern Munich (1-2), Mats Hummels could not resist the urge to tease the Parisian club. Now consultant for Amazon Prime Videothe former Bavarian defender returned to the stadium where he had shone with Dortmund a few months earlier, during the semi-final second leg of the 2024 Champions League. That evening, his headed goal from a corner had qualified the Germans for the final. Visibly nostalgic, but above all teasing, Hummels published a photo of the same goal on X with a mischievous caption: “I miss the corners here”a nod to this still painful memory for Parisians.
Aged 36 and recently retired, Hummels followed from the stands the new disillusionment of PSG, beaten by a more solid and efficient Bayern. The former Mannschaft international (78 caps) thus found a fun way to remember good memories, proof that, even far from the field, Mats Hummels retains a sense of humor and a certain attachment to his past exploits.
