Luis Enrique obviously kept his word. On the eve of Metz-PSG, a match scheduled for Saturday evening and counting for the 16th day of Ligue 1, the coach of the Parisian club had suggested to the media the establishment of a competition for the position of number one goalkeeper. And this, despite the return to the group of Lucas Chevalier after a tackle received on an ankle in Monaco on November 29 (2-1, 14th day).
“Lucas had this little injury, he’s back.
Today (Friday), he did the training as usual. In this situation, we were able to see another player who had not played since the start of the season: Safonov, said the Spanish technician. He showed his level and we are very happy to see the players ready all the time. He showed not only his professionalism but also his personality “.
