The Parisian players necessarily had gray mine on Sunday. As a result of their heavy defeat against Chelsea in the club World Cup final. The men of Luis Enrique nevertheless had a reason for satisfaction: this reverse against the blues finally sounded the holiday time.
A rest necessarily welcome in view of the efforts made for more than a year: all competitions combined, PSG has indeed played no less than 66 games. A record for the capital's club.
But if the recent winners of the Champions League have tasted well -deserved holidays since Sunday, some players in the Parisian workforce have resumed, on Wednesday, the PSG campus path, in order to pass a battery of medical tests.
The first PSG match on August 13
Only a few players were concerned and first of all some of the elements loaned last summer or during the winter transfer window: Nordi Mukiele, Carlos Soler, Marco Asensio, Milan Skriniar or the young Ilyes Housni were thus present.
Randal Kolo Muani and Renato Sanches, present at the Club World Cup but eliminated from the round of 16, respectively with Juventus Turin and Benfica, should follow next week.
For the rest, Parisian players will resume training on August 4 and are expected on August 13 for the European Super Cup against Tottenham. Four days later, it will be time to resume the championship, with a trip to Nantes, on August 17 to start.
