As the reigning champions of Europe, Paris Saint-Germain hoped for a smoother path, but the draw for the Champions League group stage presents a formidable challenge. Led by coach Luis Enrique, PSG will host Bayern Munich, Atalanta Bergamo, Tottenham, and Newcastle at the iconic Parc des Princes. Their away fixtures include visits to Barcelona, Leverkusen, Lisbon (to face Sporting), and Bilbao.

Among these fixtures, the showdown against Barcelona at Camp Nou stands out, drawing significant attention. PSG’s president, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, expressed his excitement ahead of this high-stakes match.
“Barcelona is a great club, but we are also a great club”
Speaking to the media, Al-Khelaïfi emphasized the prestige of the competition, stating, “This is the world’s best club competition, featuring Europe’s top teams. It’s always challenging. We will focus on one match at a time. As for any message from Luis Enrique to Barcelona? We haven’t discussed it. It’s a match everyone is eager to see, a magnificent encounter between two great clubs. We have immense respect for Barcelona. They are a great club, but we are also a great club,” he declared.
Focused on the present
The PSG president also addressed the team’s ambitions, saying, “Are we hungry for another title? Last year is behind us. We are focused solely on this season. Winning last year gave us confidence, but confidence without hard work means nothing. We need to work hard and take it one match at a time, which is crucial,” concluded the Qatari leader.
