Winds of freshness in Brittany!
On the occasion of its 16th round of the Coupe de France this Monday in Vannes (N2) from 9:10 p.m., PSG offers a very overhauled team with at least two Titis in its ranks.
They are Édouard Michut in the midfield and Xavi Simons in support of Kylian Mbappé.
The world champion will be one of the executives of this formation whose captain will be Presnel Kimpembe, associated with Thilo Kehrer in the central hinge.
For the goalkeeper position, Mauricio Pochettino has chosen Gianluigi Donnarumma for this first match of the year 2022.
To the right of the defense, to face the absence of Achraf Hakimi, party for the CAN with his selection of Morocco (Abdou Diallo and Gana Gueye, they are with Senegal), it is Colin Dagba who will officiate. In the middle, the experienced Marco Verratti and Georginio Wijnaldum will accompany the young people. Michut, 18, played 26 minutes against Feignies-Aulnoye in the 32nd final of the same event on December 19. As for Simons, 18, he played the entire match.
For this first outing in January, PSG is deprived of Sergio Ramos, suspended, and five players affected by the Covid: Leo Messi, Juan Bernat, Danilo Pereira, Sergio Rico, Nathan Bitumazala.
Mauricio Pochettino integrated the South Americans into his group when they only resumed training on January 2, on the eve of this round of 16 of the Coupe de France.
This Sunday, PSG will resume the thread of its season in the French championship with a trip to Lyon on behalf of the 20th day of L1.
