Paris Saint Germain vs Quevilly: Paris Saint Germain will take on Quevilly on Friday as they are kicking off their pre-season ahead of the 2022-23 season.
The Ligue 1 outfit appointed Christopher Galtier as their new manager who will have a look at his squad to assess the condition of the players at his disposal.
PSG did manage to claim the French title but they couldn’t prosper in any other competition as they failed to get past the last 16 of the Champions League and Coupe de France which prompted the ouster of former manager Mauricio Pochettino from the Parc des Princes.
After competing in the friendly against the Ligue 2 side, the French champions will then head to Japan where they are scheduled to play three matches against Kawasaki Frontale, Urawa Reds and Gamba Osaka as a part of their pre-season.
The wealthy club has had a pretty underwhelming summer as except for Vitinha there are no more movements at the club presently but they are expected to undergo a busy summer it seems.
The prospect of featuring Cristiano Ronaldo with Lionel Messi in Paris appeared briefly but the club rejected the opportunity as they believe they don’t have the finances to afford the Portuguese.
Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar have trained pretty well and they are in contention to feature together while Sergio Ramos also could be seen marshalling the backline.
Quevilly have already started their pre-season and lost their previous match to Le Havre. They were on the verge of a demotion to the third tier as they had to battle it out in a relegation playoff against Villefranche and they will make a fresh start next season.
