Quite funny to see Zlatan attend several WC-games together with Nasser. Can you imagine Pique and co go to see a game together with Bartomeu? ;)

Zlatan but also TS are now friends IRL with Nasser.

It happened many times that Nasser visited them personally to have family dinners. They also have some hobbies together.

All in all, about Zlatan, dunno if it was posted here, but last month, Nasser announced he wants Zlatan to stay at PSG even after he ends his player career. He wants him to be PSG Sport/Club Manager or even higher status.

Zlatan is at PSG for very, very long it seems. As long as Nasser will be PSG President.

So PSG have shifted their interest from Alves to Aurier. Clever move by them, and god knows why Barca haven't shown any interest yet in Aurier. Is he not attacking enough?

Its because he is a RB. You don't simply play a RB at RB when you can get a RW for 50m

The board might have realized that a winger can't play as a full back and shifted their interest into actual right back. At least I hope they did.

Not happening even in our wildest dreams. We need to sign some player and play him out of position. That is barca style.

You guys are so defeatist.

Beside the Marquinhos nonsense, so far Barcelona is doing a good mercato.

In comparison, PSG signed only one player by overpaying it to the moon.

After a month of holidays, PSG players are back to training at Clairefontaine this afternoon for the first steps of the pre-season.

Today they will meet with a new figure recruited this summer: Martin Buchheit, the news member of the staff in charge of Performance.

Just like the last two seasons, the Parisians will travel to Stegersbach in Austria on July 3rd. The stage will last for 9 days. There they will play two friendly matches against TSV Hartberg (Second Division [Austria]) on July 8. and against Videoton FC (First Division [Hungary]) on July 12.

Then the parisians will travel to Leipzig in germany on July 18. There they will have a third friendy before traveling to China a week later.

During that asian tourney, they will have a friendy against Kitchee (First Division [HongKong]) before battling against Guingamp in Pékin for the Trophée des Champions (match between the winner of the French League against the winner of the French Cup).

It has to be noted that PSG players will train this afternoon in Clairefontaine because the Ooredoo sport center (PSG traning Ground) is undergoing renovation work.

The 11 players that participate to the WC will not be present.
For those that could reach the finals, their return is planned around July 14 at best.

Also, Laurent Blanc announced Zlatan Ibrahimovic will also join later. It's not certain that the swedish striker will join the stage in Austria.

Marquinhos will be back this thursday on july 3, and will travel to Austria with his teammates and the staff.


This afternoon, those players will be present : Douchez, Camara, Jallet, Lucas, Pastore and Van der Wiel. Chantôme should be there too as well as Maignan, Ongenda, Romuald Lacazette et some young players from the youth PSG center.

Tomorrow and wednesday, they will train 2 times per day before traveling to Austria on Thursday.​


More to come with the Players return Calendar, and PSG events dates. Need to translate them all first.

Last season was very complicated for Laurent Blanc. He had taken over Ancelotti's seat and had to get back PSG players one by one since many of them were on duties during summer 2013.

This summer, the task is getting even harder.

PSG allows 30 days of holidays to his players. That said, Laurent Blanc can ask some players to come back early like he did last year.

Last year, Sirigu, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva and Cavani gently accepted to cut off some days of holidays to participate in traning during the pre-season in preparation to the Trophée des Champions (that PSG won last year against Bordeaux)

Since the end of the season 13/14 in club on May 17 after the last match of the french league against Montpellier, aside from the 11 PSG players that are on duty for the WC, Marquinhos, Adrien Rabiot, Jordan Ikoko, Antoine Conte and Jean-Christophe Bahebeck have all participated to the International Toulon Festival that regrouped the U20 teams. The U20 Brazil team of Marquinhos came out as the winner against the french team led by Adrien Rabiot on June 1st in Annecy.

Some international players were on duties with their national teams for friendlies, like Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Many players are not back for the start of the pre-season today. Some of them will miss the stages in Austria, and some might even miss the Trophée des Champions on August 2nd in Beijin.

That said, Laurent Blanc is said to have planned everything so that all the players should be ready in early september for the beginning of the Champions' League.​
