Lately, PSG has been mainly mentioned in the major press in connection with the possible transfer of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, but there are no specific details yet due to the player’s substantial demands. The star striker refrains from clear comments about his future, continuing to delight fans with excellent performance (11 goals + 5 assists in the last 8 games). Overall, Luis Enrique’s team is far from its peak form, as evident in the aforementioned game and the match against Strasbourg two days ago (2-1). The capital team even conceded to their opponents in xG (1.96 against 2.24), causing a headache for Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Brest has also slightly loosened its grip after the interrupted winning streak of six games. Although they haven’t suffered defeats. Yesterday, the team played to a draw with Nice (0-0), managing to register only 2 shots on target out of 17 attempts. The players approach each game with an extraordinary mood since they have never been so close to qualifying for the Champions League before. Typically, Eric Roy’s squad relies heavily on defense (less than 1 goal conceded per game on average), making frequent forays into counterattacks. Overall, the “pirates” deserve serious praise, reaching the elite of the country without major acquisitions (the largest transfer fee for a player in the current decade is 5 million euros), becoming a good example to follow.
