Overview
- The PSG academy product, a natural midfielder, deputised for the injured Achraf Hakimi and scored from a Vitinha through ball.
- His all-round work on the right flank balanced defensive duties with incisive runs in a role he had previously struggled to master.
- Luis Enrique lauded him as mature and a leader by example, highlighting his readiness to play wherever the team requires.
- PSG are dealing with fresh injuries to Ousmane Dembélé and Nuno Mendes as well as Hakimi from the loss to Bayern Munich earlier in the week.
- His resurgence follows a dip last season and has coincided with a recall to Didier Deschamps' France squad after a return to the under-21s in September.
